Despite from Tunnel by Benedict Benjamin

Despite all the love i’ve been shown
All the care and the tenderness
All of the time and pieces of your mind
I still find myself feeling like shit

Despite all the love I’ve been shown
The hands that you lent me to hold
The warmth of your heart that brought light to the dark
I still find myself feeling alone

Despite all the love I’ve been shown
I never learned how to be tough
With each blow I roll but its taking a toll
Are you all just made of sterner stuff

Does it get easier to cope
Or easier to fake that you’re fine
Is anyone sane under all of the strain
How does anyone stay in the lines.

I’m trying to keep my mind

If I have been shown all this love
How do people cope who have not
I’m only just learning how tough life can turn
I salute those keeping their heads up

To everyone carrying on
Still finding the strength left to smile
Still playing your part shrapnel lodged in your heart
After trial after trial after trial
