wasn't feelin too good at the time so i just furiously wrote it down one day
Lyrics
Verse 1
G Clef:
Dear journal, what do i do, where do i go from here/
I don't have a clue, I don't even know, I fear/
my life as I know it has nothing to show/
I go to god every day but it seems like he's never home/
I've never felt more alone, like there's no one around/ to help me hold up my whole world that seems to be crashin down/
and i still haven't found, the way everyone's actin now/
one reason to put my trust in anyone, everyone's let me down/
cuz you can't trust nobody these days i really truly/
feel like in the past two years most people usually/seem to not just have two eyes two ears two hands and two feet/
but two faces now, never fail to fool me/
and i'm tired of the phone gettin cut off every month/
"mo' money mo' problems" seems stupid when you don't have none/
my parents give us all they have, you'd think with all they've done/
they might deserve some kinda break but fate just won't give them one/
Chorus
When you feel
to angry to cry, to sad to scream
When you feel
your world's collapsed from under your feet
When you feel
life has killed everything you've ever believed
this is my journal of lost hopes and lost dreams
When you feel
your heart can't take anymore pain
When you feel
heaven's ignored you, locked the gate
When you feel
no one thinks you're worth the time of day
this is my journal of cruel destiny, and cruel fate
Verse 2
Higher Rhymes:
Dear journal, more stories tell me where to begin/
written too many chapters in the book of my friends/
I erased so many pages, left hurt within/
I tell myself i'm okay but it's all to the wind/
build dreams yet I still try to makes these ends/
the champ who never left and I'm takin the win/
places I been might be wherever I go/
on a throne won't drop till they stop my flow/
I talk but they keep on ignorin me though/
but I think with my soul till the sun gets cold/
see the fork in the distance and appraoch the road/
and the fortress will collapse like it's negligable/
I stand still but I feel like I didn't even go/
all the knowledge that I gained but I still don't know/
borrowed the life I lead like I put it on loan/
speak to the present, walk, but I never went home/
Chorus
When you feel
to angry to cry, to sad to scream
When you feel
your world's collapsed from under your feet
When you feel
life has killed everything you've ever believed
this is my journal of lost hopes and lost dreams
When you feel
your heart can't take anymore pain
When you feel
heaven's ignored you, locked the gate
When you feel
no one thinks you're worth the time of day
this is my journal of cruel destiny, and cruel fate
Verse 3
G Clef:
I go to God every day, does he not here what I say?/
is he not the one that's supposed to show me the way?/
I mean I'm not in doubt but I've used every ounce of my faith/
I'm waitin for some kinda answer, s***, I'm countin the days/
to get this boulder off my chest and this weight off my shoulders/
it's gettin to me, almost had to do eleventh grade over/
i'm feelin like a failure, that every year i get older/
is another hollow year of nothin every day's gettin colder/
I'm stuck in this permanent winter that is my life/
filled with strife, and everyone just twists the knife/
when will I finally begin my sigh/
of relief when God finally decides to give a sign/
that he's out there behind me and there's nothing to fear/
that everything will be alright that's all I need to hear/
cuz I've been waiting to exhale for almost two years/
that's all for me, I'll end my journal entry here/
Chorus
When you feel
to angry to cry, to sad to scream
When you feel
your world's collapsed from under your feet
When you feel
life has killed everything you've ever believed
this is my journal of lost hopes and lost dreams
When you feel
your heart can't take anymore pain
When you feel
heaven's ignored you, locked the gate
When you feel
no one thinks you're worth the time of day
