Letra de Downtrodden

Once I was complete,
The earth, firm, under my feet,
My back was strong, my body fleet,
Now I ache allover.

I learned each virtue I was told
I worked hard to avoid the mold
But as I saw my life unfold
There was no place for me.

It was hard when I begun,
Each day harder it has become.
My only future was undone,
And nothing has replaced it.

There is nothing left to gain,
All that´s left is to maintain.
Just to stand is too much strain,
But there is nothing else

I once believed in everything,
I once had faith in my ring,
Of my own world I was the king,
And now I am a beggar

I´m tired guilt, I´m tired of crying.
I´m tired of work, and finished trying.
I´m tired of living, and scared of dying.
But there is nothing else

I´ve been beat, I´ve been broken
I asked for a place, the world has spoken
I was asleep, but now that I´ve woken,
I preferred my dream.

It will take great strength to pull me through,
This challenge unseen, which I must do.
To make a "me" I never knew,
But I´m already spent.
