Topsy Turvy Lyrics

Twenty-nine years on this weary earth

Feels like a lifetime of little worth

Love's ember, once a flame so bright

Now flickers low, a fading light

Friendships scattered like leaves in the fall

The echo of laughter haunts the hall

Empty pockets, bills unpaid

Financial burdens, heavy laid

Topsy-turvy, my world's upside down

Misery's a river where I drown

Heartaches linger, mournful tune

Hope's faint glimmer, likes the bloom

Empty pockets, bills unpaid

Heartaches linger, mournful tune

Topsy turvy, my world's upside down

Misery's river, where I drown

Heartaches linger, a mournful tune

But hope's faint glimmer lights the gloom

Family ties, once strong and true

Frayed and broken, beyond repair

A tapestry torn, beyond the mend

A life unraveling, without end

Topsy turvy, my world's upside down

Misery's river, where I drown

Heartaches linger, a mournful tune

But hope's faint glimmer lights the gloom

Though the darkness clings, I'll find my way

Rebuild the ruins, day by day

Forgiveness sought, love's flame rekindled

From ashes of the past, a future kindled

Topsy turvy, my world's upside down

Misery's river, where I drown

Heartaches linger, a mournful tune

But hope's faint glimmer lights the gloom

Though the road is long, and the climb is steep

I'll rise above, my promises to keep

Topsy turvy, no more I'll say

For a brighter tomorrow dawns today.
