Tears of Joy

The pain cuts deep
but i know where i have to be
this is what i wanted?
yeah...right
But that doesnt matter anymore
its to late
im addicted

I try to stop
but my body wants more
it hurts....it..HURTS
but i keep striving
just one more..i say...one more
but it leads to another

After i finish
what? i finally stopped
i shed tears

But i am not sad
see the tears i shed
they are tears of joy
i dont cry to give up
i cry to keep going

Because happiness doesnt come easy to some
for me i have to strive to get to where i want to become

To shed tears of joy
not to give up
but to become
