“True Faith”


Whatever happened to all my true faith?

I used to have faith in getting true love.
Now I feel I have no chance to get love.

I used to have faith and pride in myself.
Now I have no pride.  I dislike myself.

I used to have faith in all of my friends,
but I got laughed at by all of my friends.

I used to have faith in the one I love.
I’m afraid I can’t get the one I love.

I used to have faith in my smart knowledge.
But a broken heart destroyed my knowledge.

I used to have faith in this thing called life.
There is nothing good in this hell called life.

Whatever happened to all my true faith?
Suffering for three years lost my true faith.

Three years ago, I used to be happy.
Then my first love left and never came back.
After that, I have never been happy.
I miss happiness.  I want to go back.

Someone please help me.  I am so lonely.
I just need a friend.  Help me feel happy.
I need some true faith to have faith in me.

I forgot the last time I was happy.
For three long years, I have let my pain be.
Three years after the loss of my first love,
I have fell in love with a second love.

I used up my true faith on my first love.
Now there’s no faith left for my second love.
Can I get some faith for my second love?
I have no true faith for my second love.
Only you can help me get back my faith.
Just remember that I once had true faith.
