Under Different Circumstances

Under Different Circumstances

A Poem by Travis Prino

I wonder how this life would be if I were someone else

would I take everything I own and leave it on the shelf?

there's more to life than what we know but will we ever find

the meaning we are looking for that is hidden so deep inside


I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

cause I need more strength today

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

will someone guide me on my way?

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

cause I need more strength today

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

for someone to help me on my way


I wonder how this life would be if it was seen through different eyes

would I turn and run away or would I give in to the lies?

the world is changing everyday, there is no turning back

despite our fears we must go on and plan our next attack


I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

cause I need more strength today

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

will someone guide me on my way?

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

cause I need more strength today

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

for someone to help me on my way


I wonder how this life would be if I walked in a stranger's shoes

would I win more than I do now or would I simply continue to lose?

the time we have is running out and can never be replaced

the choices we make from here on out we will carry to our graves


I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

cause I need more strength today

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

will someone guide me on my way?

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

cause I need more strength today

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

for someone to help me on my way


I wonder how this life would be

I wonder how this life should be

I wonder how this life will be

I wonder


I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

cause I need more strength today

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

will someone guide me on my way

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

cause I need more strength today

I ask, I beg, I plead, I pray

for someone to help me on my way


show me the way

give me strength today.

Just a little caveat to my writing, 95% of what I write are lyrics so excuse the length and repetition and don't be deterred by that. Hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment. more..
