The Pain

Rid me of the pain of this world for I have my own pain to bear Everytime they look at me it feels I'm burned by their stare Like I stole one of their limbs or killed the life out of their breath Everyday they flock at me, wishing for my death Oh Lord what have I done, to make them feel this bitterness? I couldn't even remember causing their emptiness I'm a sailor sailing my own ship like a horse with a blinker Is it my fault that I was blessed with thought to be deep thinker?
