One day
///// our scars will heal.
One day
///// our broken hearts will be mended.
One day
///// we won't have to cry at night.
One day
///// everything will be alright.
One day
///// we'll know the colour of the sky.

Don't despair,
///// it will come.
Maybe not tomorrow, but soon.

Until then,
///// come a little closer;
cause lonely people shouldn't be alone.

If you could capture
all of your tears
do you think they'd fill a bowl?
A bucket?
A bath?
Or
do you think they'd drown the sea?

Do you remember your dream?
The one where you finally felt
emotionally complex,
the one where you looked in the mirror
and were able to call yourself
"A real human being"?

These days I wake-up
every cold morning
and have some trouble remembering it.
I look around and see
many have the same problem as me.

Perhaps
the key is to realize
we are not alone.

We are all a little lost.

You know I told you I was gonna die before I was 25.
I was a kid back then, I didn't know,
that pain was gonna make me stronger than yesterday.

I used to think the dead sang to me
"Come along and jump, you ain't got nothing to lose"
It sounded so inviting back then
when not even the moon
wanted to come and play with me.

I'm 24 now.
I now know the end is not behind a broken heart.
I don't wanna hear doomsday songs anymore.

Tonight, the living are singing
"Go out boy, you'll be ok.
A few mistakes ain't gonna turn your light off!"

And I'm inclined to believe them,
if only for today.
One day, I will look at the

s    t     a    r    s.

How they shine,
how they make me smile,
how they add a wonderful hue to the pitch black sky.

But as of now, all I have to do is to look at

y    o    u.

How you shine,
how you make me smile,
how you add a wonderful hue
to a darkness-consumed person like
me.
