The Fare You Pay For Being

You can burst through time
Wielding your anger like a weapon
Or live your life in quiet desperation
Either way, it’s the price you pay
Now you just play out the string
Better luck next time
I know you didn’t ask for the pain
It’s the fare you pay for being

  4. It's called carrying our cross and being transformed by the pain rather than being buried by it. Again...your words are powerful.
