Isn't it funny how
You **** your suicidal thoughts by talking someone out of suicide
You **** your sadness by telling someone it's not worth being sad
You **** your happiness by sacrificing it for people who don't appreciate it


Isn't it funny how
It's so easy for you to say " tomorrow will be a better day "
But tomorrow never comes

Isn't it funny how
It's so easy for you to say " good things happen to those who wait "
But you never know how long the wait is

Good things don't happen to those who wait,
Good things happen to those who are bold enough
To venture through the spirals
To seek their way through the holes
And emerge stronger than ever

Good things happen to those who are willing to try


and try



and try




and try

I promised you big things.
I promised you a life.
I promised that I'd fight for you
as long as I loved you.
Despite knowing that it was a battle
I could not win,
I still wanted to show you
that you were worth all of the tears
and heartache.
Even when you left, I kept promising.

But I can't do it any more.
I'm worn out.
Maybe even broken.
I'm putting my weapon down
and leaving you in his arms.
I'm sorry.

*Goodbye.

He is so mean to her for no reason.
She always wonders why...
Until one day,

she found him crying and asked what's wrong
boy: "nothing that you can help me with! leave me the hell alone!"
girl: "why do you hate me?"

boy: "I hate you because I can't have you"
girl: "why can't you have me?"
boy: "because I love you too much to accept you being with someone like me."
love can be very selfless sometimes.

Never think that that smile means he likes you
Never think that that wink means you look good today
Never think that that laugh means he wants you around
Don’t entertain such thoughts, you can’t afford to think that way

Because once you do, you start to fall
so never think about love at all

Or you’ll come out wounded and bruised
and you’ll feel broken, empty, and used
ignore the weak knees, the flutter of heart
ignore the butterflies, they’ll tear you apart
don’t be fooled, honey, it’s all a trap
and once you’re caught there’s no coming back

Never think that that hello means he missed you
Never think that that how are you means he cares
Never think that that look means he loves you too
Don’t let those things get to your head, honey don’t you dare

'Cause once they do, they'll poison your mind
you’ll be ecstatic for a while and then you’ll find

That you’ll come out wounded and bruised
and you’ll feel broken, empty, and used
ignore the weak knees, the flutter of heart
ignore the butterflies, they’ll tear you apart
don’t be fooled, honey, it’s all a trap
and once you’re caught there’s no coming back

All bad things are wrapped up like presents
but they turn out to be Pandora’s box
and they’ll shine bright like a diamonds
but one touch and it’ll turn to rocks

I guess I thought when I stopped time,
It would do the same for you as well.
I thought if I stayed waiting,
That I would keep you held.
I figured that we meant our words
And wanted what we said.
I never thought this distance
Could put those plans to death.
I thought when I sat alone
That your life mirrored mine.
I considered love to be our secret word.
I am such a child.
I felt that when my eyes slid closed
Your world also went dark.
I thought we were on the same page,
Although so far apart.
I thought when I stopped time
That it would mean the same for you.
Alone but together,
But I guess that wasn't true.

— The End —
