Two lives



Water on my eyelids
Ive been drinking all day
Always sad
Seen friends keep on winning
Now I can't even stand them
Yeah im jealous
Can't blame
When am still losing

You will never be good
Even your mother knows
I bet she's crying now
She is living two lives
Making her age twice her age
Every morning she's thinking about her hard life
AndEvening she's thinking about her child life
Child you are selfish

Time is not in your mind
While tides waits for none
Everything is gone
You made so many mistakes

I pray
You forgive yourself
And change your life
For everyone sake
