Beating Myself Up
Today I am struggling
With fear from self doubt
Don't know where it came from
Or why it's about
Something inside me
Is firing my fears
I'm nervous and edgy
And so close to tears
I'm hurting......... inside me
I don't know the reason why.... why.... why
Fear and doubt...... let me be
Nothing I can do except cry...... cry..... cry
I try hard to stay up
It's pulling me down
I want to be smiling
Instead I must frown
The fun and the laughter
Are missing today
I desperately seek them
Make this go away
Inside my fears and and tears are winning
I'm feeling hopelessness beginning
There's nothing left for me to do but fight it
And search deep in my soul for ways to stop it
I'm hurting......... inside me
I don't know the reason why.... why.... why
Fear and doubt...... let me be
Nothing I can do except cry...... cry..... cry
