People look
But they cannot see
The hate I feel
Inside of me
So you ask
Why do I hate
I don't think
You can relate
My life's a mess
It's turned upside down
A happy medium
Just can't be found
What makes me
Hurt inside
Why have my tears
All run dry
The news I got
From the doctor today
Were the saddest words
I've heard her say
What I have
Can't be cured
By the doctor I was
Most assured
She told me
Tie up loose ends
Then say goodbye
To all my friends
So now I must prepare
To tell the ones I love
That my destination
Is bound for up above
So that's the reason
I feel hate
Because I fear
It's much too late
I feel that hope
Is all but gone
For me too soon
I'll be passing on
Unless of course
I can find
A drug for me
To extend my time
A second opinion
I must seek
So that maybe life
Is something I can keep
