Any Help At All I don’t know when the bad stuff is supposed to end and when the good stuff is supposed to begin maybe I’ve been failing in my efforts to find some good stuff, I don’t know I’ve been hoping for that happiness, though and I don’t know where to look any more I’m tired of doing things myself and I’m tired of looking for my own answers for all the troubles I experience I’m tired of looking I want someone to help me out on this one I don’t know where I’m going to find that help, though maybe people kept seeing me with my head on my shoulders and they got tired of looking in my direction to see if I needed anything but I always want what others don’t expect me to want and I still don’t know where I’m going to, to find any help at all Copyright Janet Kuypers.
