People are dying every single day
Yet, we just sit around
Frozen, with nothing to say
Voiceless, Pushing them into the ground
But not anymore
We have voices and they are ready to roar
It's time we speak up
It's time we shout out
To take the risk and throw the drugs out
It's time to give people something else to think about

What is wrong with the world today
The good times seem to have faded away
Yesterday is gone, Today is now, and Tomorrow isn't always promised, (It's never promised)
When did our world become so demolished?

People are losing their lives
To something far worse, than guns and knives
Because they are consuming the Devil
and Not knowing that they will never reach his level
It's time to get rid of the bad
and replace it with good
It's time to give them the life they wish they had
The life they dreamed they had
The life they never had

So, what is wrong with the world today?
Have the good times really faded away?
Yesterday is gone, it's never coming back
Today is now, it's time to get our lives on track
Because Tomorrow isn't always promised, (It's never promised)

It's time for no more mental wards
It's time for no more prison wards
It's time to start living by going forward
And to stop dying by going backwards

The time is now, The time has come
To banish the drugs, and to mourn the deaths
People deserve to take deep breaths
People deserve a better outcome
Us, As people deserve to live
People deserve to believe
It's time to forgive
It's time for the drugs to leave

It's time, The time is NOW!

What is wrong with the world today
The good times seem to have faded away
Yesterday is gone, Today is now, and Tomorrow isn't always promised, (it's never promised)
So, when did our world become so demolished?

do you know what it's like?
to feel lonely, but not be alone
do you know what it's like?
the want to be around people
but the need to be on your own
do you know what it's like?
to want to receive love
but the need to give hate
do you know what it's like?
to want happiness
but also enjoy the sadness
do you know? do you really know?
it's not easy being happy
then 10 seconds later be sad
it's easy to accept sadness
but hard to accept happiness
it's easier to spread hate
than it is easy to spread love
I don't really want to be on my own
but I can't handle being surrounded
I can't say I'm alone
it's just easier to feel lonely

When the sun fades away
and the day turns into night
That's when I'll think of you
When the sky is dark
And the moon is bright
I'll know it's you and
That's when I'll think of you

You were my strength
You were my inspiration
I'll never forget the day you saved my life
By showing me how to love without hesitation
You were always there for me
Whenever I felt alone
The way you would hold me
And comfort me with your soothing voice tone

When the rain drops fall
And there's no one beside me
That's when I'll think of you
When the snow covers the ground
And there's no one to guide me
That's when I'll think of you

Through out the years
You've given me laughter
You've given me tears
Through out my life you've given me hope
To go and start a new chapter
Always giving me love and support
By being my hero and taking away all my fears

So, whenever I'm missing you
I'll sit in the sun
I'll look up to the sky
If the moon is bright
I'll know it's you
And that's when I'll be thinking of you
I'll stand in the rain
I'll walk in the snow
You'll forever be in my heart
And I'll always be thinking of you
Every night I lay in bed crying
Because I can feel my body slowly dying
I want to surrender
I want to live a new adventure
Please God take me home
I'll accept my defeat
This pain that was  given to me
Is making it almost impossible to stand on my own two feet
This pain is so intense
It's literally demanding
The want and need for a cure
Is almost intimidating
This pain I'm talking about
Starts from the top of my head
Working it's way through my body
Until it finally reaches my toes
The extent of misery I feel everyday
Is something that nobody knows
Because I put a fake smile on my face
And try my hardest to survive another day
Every night I lay in bed crying
Because I can feel my body slowly dying
I want to surrender
I want to live a new adventure
Please God take me home
I'll accept my defeat
This pain that was  given to me
Is making it almost impossible to stand on my own two feet
This pain is so intense
It's literally demanding
The want and need for a cure
Is almost intimidating
This pain I'm talking about
Starts from the top of my head
Working it's way through my body
Until it finally reaches my toes
The extent of misery I feel everyday
Is something that nobody knows
Because I put a fake smile on my face
And try my hardest to survive another day
When the sun fades away
and the day turns into night
That's when I'll think of you
When the sky is dark
And the moon is bright
I'll know it's you and
That's when I'll think of you

You were my strength
You were my inspiration
I'll never forget the day you saved my life
By showing me how to love without hesitation
You were always there for me
Whenever I felt alone
The way you would hold me
And comfort me with your soothing voice tone

When the rain drops fall
And there's no one beside me
That's when I'll think of you
When the snow covers the ground
And there's no one to guide me
That's when I'll think of you

Through out the years
You've given me laughter
You've given me tears
Through out my life you've given me hope
To go and start a new chapter
Always giving me love and support
By being my hero and taking away all my fears

So, whenever I'm missing you
I'll sit in the sun
I'll look up to the sky
If the moon is bright
I'll know it's you
And that's when I'll be thinking of you
I'll stand in the rain
I'll walk in the snow
You'll forever be in my heart
And I'll always be thinking of you
She hides her pain
Behind a smile
Because she knows
The pain will last
More than a little while

She hides her pain
Behind a mask
Because she knows
What people will ask

They'll ask her
"Are you okay?"
She'll say "I'm fine"
Turn, and walk away

The less she has to tell
The less her heart can yell
She wants to be free
But no one will let her be

They keep asking her
"Are you okay?"
She says "I'm fine"
But inside all she wants
Is the pain to go away

She doesn't know
If she'll be around
To see that day

So she hides her pain
Behind a smile
Because she knows
The pain will last
More than a little while
