When you read my words
Do you hear the beat of my heart?
Do you see the colour of my soul?
Do you feel the strength of my emotion?
Do you sense the hurt beyond the smile?
Do you relate to my inherent hope?
Do you know how much I love?

I bleed upon these pages
So you might see
That while you've never met me
You know me

A life without love
Is like a night sky without the stars.
It's still there,
Just not quite as beautiful

When your mind is shattered
Your eyes are blinded
There is pain everywhere
you go
Don't give up and
Don't give in

When the wheel of fortune
is stuck at 6
No hope remains
Don't give up
Don't give in
Noon will be coming around
again

When loneliness is
your only friend
and
it keeps calling you names
Don't give up
and
Don't give in

There are times
when life is
ablaze with horrors
but
Don't give up
and Don't give in

Those that survive
are those that find meaning
those that passively
take to their bed
are bound
to
perish
Don't give up
Don't give in

When the law's
got your name
and no payment can be
made
and
you have to go
along with their plans
that have been laid,
Inside, where you hide
Don't give up and
Don't give in.

Time only stops
once
Don't give up
Don't give in.
