I believe...I believe in the simplicity of things, you just live, even if it hurts, you just live, when the lights turn off, I'll be the light that lights the way, hurt and pain, only if I'm fighting for what's right, giving up, laying down, that's not me, you may get a frown, I could never fight alone, hold on to what lifts you, Change...change the way you think, change the way you love, life is bittersweet, even when its bitter, make it sweet, dream for a better you, even if it brings sorrow, today will show strength for tomorrow, be the best today, holding on to a wish is childish, believe in more then just breathing, holding on to past sorrow, that'll bring hurt for tomorrow, look up, you just look up, life goes on and so must the strong

i should really
do something about this
(you)
but i don't have the heart
i'm not stupid
i know when i'm
being used
i know you're just
bored
inbetween
shy...
alright.
but another thing
i didn't realize
that should be
on that list
is
selfish
you're using me for a
laugh
to keep yourself
occupied
on the nights
when your only company
is me
and a bottle
of jack
i've got to put a
stop to this
it's not fair
i'm not getting
out of you
what you're getting
out of me
it's quite a paradox
that i can be so intelligent
and yet so stupid
i like it while it lasts
but when you move on
i'll still be back here
just laughing
by myself
now
well
at least i'll still be
laughing

maybe
I know
that I know
what I know.

But I also know
there is a lot
that I don't know,

she says to me,
confidently.
