Sometimes I am so happy
I feel like I could cry
Sometimes I'm so upset
I feel like I could die
At times I know just where I stand
I never have to lie
At times I don't know whether
I should stay or say goodbye

My life is like a pendulum
It has its ups and downs
And then I'm in the middle
Shold I smile or should I frown?
Should I face reality
Or should I run and hide?
Should I live my fantasies
Or stay on for the ride?

I don't know whom to turn to
What to say, or where to go
Is this a normal life to live?
Does anyone really know?
I know when I am wanted
I know when I am used
What I don't really understand
Is why I'm so confused
