Don't take life too seriously, we don't get out alive anyways


Drinking away my worries
Cutting out the pain
Starving off the imperfections

Screaming out for help
Crying to God
Waiting for fixes
Those were the days of yesterdays

Finding relief in a knife
Discovering answers in a bottle
Searching for perfection in emptiness

Wishing I wasn't hurting
Regretting all my decisions
Ignoring all the right options
Those were the days of yesterdays

What will tomorrow bring?

A new hope in a new light?
Possibly the fourth quarter?
More days of yesterdays?

This was written on a long bus trip after church camp when everyone around me was so happy and lively and I was at one of the lowest points in my life
