We come across people
Some have known all our lives, some we don't even know their name
But for those we know, they could be strangers
We don't know if they're in any pain
*This may be a person you know
They're everyone around us
They need help, they're sinking low*
There's the girl with the scars on her wrist
She's never felt good enough
She puts up a wall keeping people from her
She lets no one in, they can't see that her life is tough
*This may be a person you know
They're everyone around us
They need help, they're sinking low*
There's the boy with the black hoodie
He uses drugs to escape
He hates everyone
No one can see his life is dark behind that black drape
*This may be a person you know
They're everyone around us
They need help, they're sinking low*
She tries to cut away the pain
She's caught in the rain
He tries to lose control of what he's feeling
Little by little his sanity is fleeing
*This may be a person you know
They're everyone around us
They need help, they're sinking low*
All of this we may never know

To find true strength
One feels they must look everywhere
But don't look in other people
This will not work, I swear
Look in your own soul
And tell me what you've found
You've found the strength you really need
There is no need to look around
The strength within is the greatest out there
It can lift a hurting person
And heal a broken heart
Lead someone to a new decision
Unite the pieces of a person falling apart
This strength is not found on the outside
But on the inside, where it counts
In the heart and in the mind
It can help you find peace
If it is what you wish to find

We search for this thing,
Beautiful and true,
Who knows if you'll find it,
It may not belong to you,
If you're lucky to have it,
Keep it close to your heart,
And pray to God life won't tear you apart.
This thing is called true love,
But does it exist?
Is it real?
It could be a myth.
We fantasize about this thing,
But maybe it only belongs in dreams
