What do you do? Oh, What do you do?

[mikethelemming]

What do you do
When the world crushed you
And the people you depend on
Have become so few?
What do you do?
Oh, what do you do?

Your best friend
Turns on you,
With so much as a
"Fuck you!"
What a friend I have been
To deserve such treatment.

The girl you love
Hates everything you stand for.
Her heart is with a man
Who's twice the man, for sure.
How can I compare
To someone who doesn't even care?

Your try to prove them wrong-
Everyone that doubts who you are,
But you'll never succeed,
Never shine as a star.
I'll never be ok,
Losing everyday.

I prayed for hope
I prayed for help.
I prayed for heaven
Or a safe haven.
But I'm still here,
Forever, I fear.

When it all comes down
What do you do?
You do what I do,
Cower and hide,
As no one's on your side,
With only destroyed pride
To rock you to sleep.
