It\'s been thirty four years
That I have been on this earth.
Thirty four years
Since the day of my birth.
I\'ve shed my share of tears
And second guessed my worth.
Happy days are far and few in between
and I\'ve tried but can\'t reach my star
Been held back by things unseen
Sometimes it feels like I\'m stuck in tar.
I\'ve spent my days alone
For most of my life
Now those days are gone
And I\'m riddled with strife
All the way down to the bone.
Thirty four years of nothing to show
Only the words that I write
Thirty four years of feeling low
And tomorrow don\'t seem to bright.
