While the whole world sleeps
I stay awake and think
About how things should be
At least, according to me
I won’t give in or let up
Over all the little stuff
If I cry, then they will dry
And I’ll carry on my blithe
I know that I will be fine
My crown is just to the side

Some chains can’t be broken
I’m due what I’ve been hoping
For a better way and better days
And love is what is to thank
Too many bonds have been made
The very ones you try to take
So try your best to weaken this
And drags us to your bitterness
But I’m not ever giving up
We’ve proven to be tough - love

The world is too small, in my eyes
Collide with them over again in life
I’m already and unsteady and terrified
Now you given me something
The reason I need to run and hide
To protect the wounds on the inside
Because one more cut to my gut
And my soul will surely die
I think it’s unavoidable this time
I will go where you can’t find

One too many surprises
Kinds by the negative light
Known as misfortune and lies
Have occurred during a short life
You would think by this time
The shock would greatly demise
And sheer disappointment would
Turn into absolute, impending doom
But I’m still here struggling - for you
Holding onto hope, as you should too
