When the knife gets so enticing
that you would be willing to run it over your own skin
and silently whisper "I deserve this..."
Than that time has come
Take the knife and cut down the hedges we call fears
and see what lies beyond them
take the conquered worries and use them
use them to shape yourself into the person
you were created to be
Take another stop on the board so then
you will be able to see closer to the future
which holds something called "happiness"
run and leave those who will hold you still
cut through the vines the devil uses to hold us back
and rush towards those who are always there to take your hand
with open arms, free spirit, and contented mind.

The time has come
to stop thinking
**and start doing
I hope I'll be able to act when the time comes
