Woe Is Me

Woe Is Me - Peter Squires

On the last day of 2008

I learned I'd been taken along

For a ride

It was the worst feeling

A terrible feeling

Worse than when my mother died

'Cuz at least she tried

Even with cancer inside

To make me feel our time

Together had mattered

And I deserve better than what happened

Ooo woe is me

On the best day of 2008

I thought that I had

My whole future in sight

It was the best feeling

A magical feeling

A feeling of intense pride

'Cuz I was able to find

A future mother and bride

Who made me feel

What we were building was perfect

And all the sacrifices

Made would be worth it

So much for dreams

All I wanted now was to say hello

And hear from anyone

That I have been missed

I'm not opposed to moving on

Trust me

I want to move on more than anything

I'm the same guy you let into your family

And I need a hug

Now on the bread line in 2009

It's even harder to feel

Pumped about life

No I can't see the ceiling

But trust that I'm dealing

And we're all doing

What we can to survive

And maybe someday we'll thrive

I'll find a queen for my hive

But without a lover

Or a mother It's harder

For a man to feel at home

And find comfort

Ooo woe is me
