Jan 2015
Alone in the nighttime with no one to talk to except for your thoughts
You think all about her and wish that she was there and ask why she’s not
So what if you’ve lost her, this girl that you thought would be with you for life?
This way you’ll be single when you meet the girl that’ll become your wife

Awake in the morning just thinking about life while lying in bed
You think there’s no world that’ll ever be better than what’s in your head
But you can be happy no matter your problems it’s all up to you
Just get out of your bed and let the world’s love put an end to your blues

You don’t know what’s out there
So why assume the worst?
Your life is a blessing
Don’t treat it like a curse
The road ahead is shining
Why take a dark detour?
If you give life a chance
You will see there’s so much more

You say that your lust and desire and loving have brought you despair
And if you were dead as you think the world’s love is that no one would care
All life has got pain, but you don’t have to suffer, you have got the right
The darkness is nothing if you have a soul that’ll burn through the night

You don’t know what’s out there
So why assume the worst?
Your life is a blessing
Don’t treat it like a curse
The road ahead is shining
Why take a dark detour?
If you give life a chance
You will see there’s so much more

The fire’s still burning, the love is not over just ‘cause she is gone
Your lover has left you, but it doesn’t matter the love carries on
So what if it’s over and you can no longer give love to your girl?
Just open your heart up and open your eyes and give love to the world
This is the opening song of my first album. I wrote it during the Summer of 2013 about a fictional breakup, and it later helped me to get through a (kind of, but not really) breakup in my real life. So thanks past me!
