Grab a friend
Have a blast
For in the end,
They could be your last
A hand you lend
Lend it fast
That friend
Is in the past
Unless...
You let bygones be bygones
'Cause the affection you send
Makes you friends 'till the end.

Watch
Watch as the clouds go by
Watch the birds fly
Then
Watch them fly back again
You see a hen
When
The air roars
In a twist of fury
Yet you stay
You Just Watch

When you feel trapped in your own mind
Bring your old self close
Just squeeze it tight
With all your might
And let it go
Let it wither away
For in those ashes
You shall find hope
Hope to begin anew
You
Have
Changed

Light shines brightest in the dark
Warm is hottest in the cold
They cannot exist without the other
But us...
We are bound to this earth by worldly tethers, but we can leave
But we stay, even though we have a choice
To enter the void
To have true freedom
However, there is a reason not to
To stay together
With loved ones
With friends
To stick together until the end
We are,
T-O-G-E-T-H-E-R

For whom dies
They rise
Into the skies
Filled with lies
The end sha'n't be neigh
Or shall it?
When the candles are lit
Will it fit?
Just sit
Let's eat
It's all a distraction

Shine
Like a flower, ever so bright
Or the moon each night
A bird's spirit as they reach new heights
A hero's grin, so full of might
Like a happy child, playing with a kite
Or like the wonderful sun, giving off so much light
A sip of hot cocoa, what a delight!
And even things beyond sight!
