Sadness
Sometimes the Sadness hits me like a freight train
and I don't know what to do with myself
I mean, give me a break; I was hit by a freight train.

I sit there and I cry
and I don't know why
I just cry

My self-esteem has gone to shit
so I cry and almost nothing helps
except holding me until it's passed

and then I'm fine again
for a while.

And life is good
and I'm happy
and I dance

and then

the Sadness hits me like a freight train
and I lay there,
a wreck on the train tracks of Life
and don't know what to do with myself
