Where have they gone
Wherever could they be
The Children of the Forest
Have become lost in the city
Their laughs no longer echo through treetops
Children now draped in tee tops
Tuned in listening to that beat drop
Never stopping to wonder why they can't stop
So the trees remain quiet
Day after day the same
Waiting for a dreamer to awake
And the Forest to reclaim

What needs have I
In the face of yours
My father cares for me
As I tend my chores
By spreading his blessings
And sharing his love
Someday we may live below
As he does above
Extend a hand
To someone in need
Take the stand
I promise you'll see
So give of your time
Be of cheerful heart
Remember this rhyme
Remember where it starts

I want to disappear
To sink into obscurity
Drown beneath the waves
Of all my insecurities
I'm riding high
I'm crashing low
This raging ocean
Outta control
Wake me up
I hate this nightmare
Wake me up
Is anyone out there
Can't escape this apathy
It's swallowed me complete
Can't go on much longer
Stranded at sea
Pull me from these dark tides
Rescue me from myself
I'm staring from inside
Slowly losing to this hell
Wake me up
Keep me from despair
Wake me up
Please make me care

Show me how to live
To die another day
Living in this sickness
Thanks for the band aid
Don't push me your pills
My problems not your solution
My problem is you
Your whole evil evolution
Thanks for showing me how to live
To die a slower way
Please torture me with sickness
May I have another band aid
You've warped my perception
Made another slave
Medicated to complacency
I can never expect to be brave

I'm not dead
Just screaming inside
I'm not dead
Just stuck in my mind
I'm sinking beneath the waves
The voices crashing round and round
Every time I come gasping up
I push me right back down
Gotta hold on
Remember the light
Gotta hold on and remember
The day divides the night

I've grown so numb
To pain, to love
Trying to find a way
From below to above
Detached from the world
Detached from myself
Is there anything of worth
In my little slice of hell
When I try to look up
It seems the same as down
My smile feels empty
Worse than a frown
This hole in me
I can't seem to fill
I can't see the way
I can find no will
The days keep passing
Darkness continues to fall
It seems like nothing
Will clear this dismal pall
There's a hole in me
That I can't seem to fill
Leaving me empty
Except for this bitter little pill

Steel cuts and fire burns
Leaves us to choke on fumes
Nothing to be done
As we turn our heads
Ways of life and medicine
Gone up in smoke
Losing more than we know
Though most have no idea

I know in my heart
We're here to grow
Become like stars
Shine with a benevolent glow
Light up a life
Show love to someone
Keep in mind
It's a job never done
The more you shine
The brighter we get
Let happiness reign
Keep your torch lit

Finish what you started
You have it in you
Don't let this opportunity pass
Because you're feeling blue
Good things come
To those with tenacity
Go about your life
Sure and steadfastly
Keep a firm hold
Keep chasing your dreams
Nothing can keep you down
Move ahead full steam

Don't let your lows
Define your heights
Keep your goals set
Firmly within your sight
Focus on yourself
What you want to achieve
You can bring about
Whatever you believe
Pick yourself up
Brush off the dust
You're almost there
Right on the cusp
Learn from the past
Rise up from the depths
Climb the stairway
Step by step
Like a Phoenix
Reborn from the ash
Ignite a new flame
Shine with a brilliant flash
