There were times when I smiled,
but it wasn't real.
It hurt my lips,
it hurt my heart
and yet I smiled,
because I didn't want the others
to feel unhappy
or realize what I'm going through.
Based on true emotions.

If I could fly away from this place,

I would fly and see your face.

I would take the sadness and destroy it.

I'd put you together, bit by bit.


I'd help you in every way.

I'd help you day after day.

I'll wash the pain out of your mind,

so that happiness you will find.


Even if you don't need it, you do.

Because I know you better than you know you.

In the past, we had good times.

Made mistakes and cried.

We laughed and lied.

Got hurt but said we were fine.


Some dwell on the past all day.

Some leave it be and carry on.

Some think and regret form dusk till dawn.

“Past is the past” Some will say.


While that is true, it may cause pain.

The past can hurt when you,

don’t let go of what you know.

When you think again and again.


The past hurts and haunts.

Memories you can never re-live.

Things you worked hard to give.

It’s scary how our minds taunts.


Some are are trapped in the past. Never to get out.

No matter how much they scream and shout.

Looking at the clouds in the sky,

Beautiful, fluffy and white.

Then it turned and started to cry.

It cried and cried with all it's might.


Tears poured onto the streets below,

Soaking the houses and the people around.

Why the sky cried? We may never know,

why the teardrops are hitting the ground.


Did we do something to upset it?

Did we put them in incredible pain?

Probably. That's why they're throwing a fit.

Once their done, it'll be happy again.


Until then, don't speak a word.

Don't want them to flood the world

It was all so sudden, out of the blue.

The hazy fog lifted and I saw you.

Our eyes. They met and you started to grin.

"Things will get better then they've ever been."


We've got each other until the end.

I know you won't leave. You're my best friend.

You tell me there's no need to be sad.

"You're alive and well. Be glad!"


I'll listen to your advice and keep them here.

I'll repeat them year by year.

"So it's okay" You'd say to me.

"It'll be better. You can live in glee!"

Be positive, go seize the day!

Make all your demons go away.

Stand out, take a chance!

Come on, let's go dance!



Bring out the light in your eyes.

Let's get rid of all these lies.

Smile! Be happy today!

Turn your world vibrant, not grey!


Look, there are friends all around.

From high in the sky to down on the ground.

Turn things around, don't be sad.

You'll realize that living isn't so bad.


Don't think about going away.

Here with me is where you'll stay.

So don't say your life isn't okay.

We'll do this together, what do you say?

I think you're the one for me.

You help me be who I want to be.

I thank you for all you've done.

You taught me how to have fun.


I envy you. You're full of love.

You told me I could rise above.

I like you. I don't know why.

You want me to be honest, not shy.


I don't want to lose you. Now or ever.

You make everything around me better.

So we can do it. Me and you.

Together, there's nothing we can't do.
