SOUR   GRAPES
(SOMETIMES LIFE SUCKS... SOMETIMES WE JUST THINK IT DOES)

sometimes I feel like a garbage dump
like I have a sign on my back
dump your shit right here

sometimes I feel like a Forrest Gump
and everyone takes advantage
of my being there

the good life hasn't come around
no matter how much I give
my good nature is just something
that makes it hard to live
the more I give the more is taken
maybe the golden rule is mistaken
everytime I find friends faking
I find my heart breaking
so tired of my heart breaking

sometimes I feel like a compost pile
like I have to digest the crap
other people have done

sometimes I feel like the final mile
of a losing race I didn't
want to even run

if what goes around comes around
you can't prove it by me
I've given everything I could
to find more poverty
I've found people take and take
as long as I'm giving
and when I need to take a breath
they just discard me

I don't want to shut down
I don't want to get mean
I don't want to ignore
all the things I have seen
I don't want to lose faith
I don't want to give up
I don't want to get tough
when is enough enough

sometimes I feel like a garbage dump
I take whatever people give
and don't retaliate

sometimes I feel like a Forrest Gump
I live by my good intentions
share what's on my plate

and when nothing's left for me
there's no one I can turn to
life is draining and lonely
I don't know what to do

I don't want to shut down
I don't want to get mean
I don't want to ignore
all the things I have seen
I don't want to lose faith
I don't want to give up
I don't want to get tough
when is enough enough

sometimes I feel like a garbage dump
