How do you tell someone that you love
That doesn't love you back
That you care about them
But not in the same way
Maybe they just like the thought
And it's just another game
That they play most days
In their day to day life
Not worried about others
Only themselves during this fight
That becomes a battle
A battle of lost and found
Where they split off on groups
And literally hate each other
Saying I am better than you by being me
What about them?
They are them, it's the exact thing
Agree to disagree
Find yourself in the mix
Find yourself in the circus
But don't get lost in it
We are stars sent from the cosmos
Humans looking up from below
I see myself from where I should
I am looking down like I knew I would
We are lost in the sins of our ancestors
Parents before us who didn't have all the answers
Lost in someone else's perception
It will take only the holy to fight this battle for them
I praise myself for wanting to try
I could have it all
This is my baby blue sky
But I am sick of being alone
I need my family
This has always been home
Home where is the heart is
And I finally found you
I will want forever
I just hope you want me too.
