Straight Path To Sorrow

(J. Hall)
This battle I fight all alone
No one to help, no one for my own
Playing mind games with myself
I'm still fighting all alone
It leads to a place
But I do not follow
Straight paths everywhere
No turns from the sorrow
All this is hard enough
But more is thrown at me
You tell me to fight back
Only a reason I can't see
(chorus)
You are like my shadow
But only following at night
During the day
You are out of sight
There's an unknown place
Where things are slow
Life's not so hard
Where negativity is unknown
(chorus)
