Life feels so long, With so many feeling wrong Dozens of people with self-hate, trying to find someone to date Life’s string ready to snap, Young and old souls ready to go They have nothing to show, For too long they’ve felt like crap But you’re strong, You’re allowed to carry on They’ll notice if your gone, Even if you’ve done wrong Why should you die, And say goodbye Life’s shorter then we know, Even when it feels slow Giving up feels so easy, Like it’ll set us free Ending it feels right, So were finally out of sight No more mistakes, lonely nights full of heartache Thoughts of failure no more, From this soul so poor Break their heart in inches, Break it all His love always felt small, So you gave yourself bruises Frostbite making me feel, These cuts never allowed to heal We stay away from people, Deep down inside we’re evil Words never said, Between us laying on that bed Eyes of brown with no care, making me shed a tear He must have liked me I thought, Otherwise what was the point In hurting myself without a second thought, I guess I just live to disappoint But we are strong, Even when we fail Skin turning pale, Life’s not long For us to die here, upon hate’s triumphant spear So pick yourself up little one, Right now life’s not done Pick your chin up and look around, All these faces gone if you drowned Smiles and warmth near and far, Hundreds of voices letting you know you’re a star Live on for them if not for you, With time your heart shall no longer be in two Love will heal the pain you’ve been burying, But if you leave you’ll never find anything What am I saying, I’m just delaying I can’t even follow my own advice, Walking a life of vice So go on with yourself, See if you find life far back on the shelf I’ll just sit here, Rotting away year after year

Life's Short
Life feels so long, With so many feeling wrong Dozens of people with self-hate, trying to find someone to date Life’s string ready to snap, Young and old souls ready to go They have nothing to show, For too long they’ve felt like crap But you’re strong, You’re allowed to carry on They’ll notice if your gone, Even if you’ve done wrong Why should you die, And say goodbye Life’s shorter then we know, Even when it feels slow Giving up feels so easy, Like it’ll set us free Ending it feels right, So were finally out of sight No more mistakes, lonely nights full of heartache Thoughts of failure no more, From this soul so poor Break their heart in inches, Break it all His love always felt small, So you gave yourself bruises Frostbite making me feel, These cuts never allowed to heal We stay away from people, Deep down inside we’re evil Words never said, Between us laying on that bed Eyes of brown with no care, making me shed a tear He must have liked me I thought, Otherwise what was the point In hurting myself without a second thought, I guess I just live to disappoint But we are strong, Even when we fail Skin turning pale, Life’s not long For us to die here, upon hate’s triumphant spear So pick yourself up little one, Right now life’s not done Pick your chin up and look around, All these faces gone if you drowned Smiles and warmth near and far, Hundreds of voices letting you know you’re a star Live on for them if not for you, With time your heart shall no longer be in two Love will heal the pain you’ve been burying, But if you leave you’ll never find anything What am I saying, I’m just delaying I can’t even follow my own advice, Walking a life of vice So go on with yourself, See if you find life far back on the shelf I’ll just sit here, Rotting away year after year
