Keep Going
Nobody knows what to say,
Try to carry on as if it's just another day.
Things will be alright,
One day this horror will be out of sight.
Just try to keep it together, don't let them see you cry,
Things are sure to get better as time goes flying by.
But nobody knows what you feel,
You feel like your spinning like a speeding bicycle wheel.
You feel like you cannot even get out of bed,
Others say, come on be brave it's all just inside your head.
But they don't know the feeling that it should have been me,
My little girl was faultless, she just deserved to be.
Was it all my fault, am I to blame?
It just goes around in my head, just filling me with shame.
That horrible thing that took her to early from this world,
Hangs over everything, like a dense dark, terrible cloud.
But we all have to keep our chins up and make things seem good,
So, her own little girls have a happy life just like they should.
