The ecstasy of such a simple childhood thing
Swinging on the playground
You don't realize how joyful it makes you feel
Till you do it once more
And feel leg stretching familiarity
Wind racing past
Scenes blurred
Edges of lips curving towards a blue sky
The freedom of flying for just a little while...
Life happens
You can’t stop it
From doing what it does
I know you know this
So it’s hopeless
To try to change it up

[Chorus]
Cause when everyday
People die
People cry
People live
And they forgive
Life for what it does

"Why does everything bad
Always have to happen to them"


I wish I could’ve known them
So I could tell them that they’re worth it
But I didn’t know them
I wish I could’ve shown them
That every life is worth living
But I couldn’t show them

[Chorus]

But it’s hard to understand
Them and their emotions
And it’s hard to understand
Why this is happening to them
When will it get better for them
Or will it never
It’s never really made sense to me

Everyday people die
And people cry
So don’t make yourself die
And leave us to cry
Don’t bring your death upon yourself
Just let life bring you to the end
Thanks to Kaitlin Molden for the title

I
am
   just
      an
        empty
            shell
                that
                    is
                      falling
                                  .  
                                    .  
                                       .....

Pain is...
Being able to imagine a future with him
Someone who will never love you.

Pain is...
Loneliness
Sadness
Being overlooked
Wishing for the impossible
Seeing everyone run from you.

Pain is spirit breaking,
Tear jerking torment.

That's what pain is.

I'm playing with fire
The blaze is rising
And I don't know to stand,
Fly,
Or run.
Where do I go from here?
