We Can Only Make It If We Try Poem by michole petersen

WE CAN ONLY MAKE IT IF WE TRY
THATS WHAT THEY ALL SAY
WE RE GONNA MAKE IT LIVE OR DIE
ONLY SOME SAY
EVERYONE ELSE LIVES IN A LIE
BUT THATS THEIR WAY
BUT IM GONNA MAKE IT LIVE OR DIE
CUZ THATS MY WAY
EVERY DAY ITS SOMETHING NEW
AND ITS GETTING HARDER WITHOUT YOU
SO WHY DO I STILL PLAY THIS GAME
MANIPULATING THE TRUTH
IM DONE PLAYIN THIS GAME
IM GONNA TELL YOU THE TRUTH
A WHILE AGO I FELL IN LOVE
WITH THE MAN OF MY DREAMS
BUT NOW ITS ALL FALLEN APART
RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME
TELL ME HOW TO GET OUT OF THE RAIN
WHEN THERES NO SHELTER AROUND ME
AND HOW DO I FORGET THE PAIN
WHEN THE KNIFE IS STILL STABBING ME
