You've been stuffed with all this pain,
that is seeking to escape.
Yet you've kept it all concealed,
in order to save others from the heartache.
To hold your own pain in,
to be so selfless for others,
is a rare and unique quality.
It takes so much strength.
However, we are all only human.
We need to let it out at some point.
We need to think about ourselves a little too.

You are part of something great I know
Always spreading joy wherever you go
Part of something bigger, part of something great
You are something special and I can't hardly wait
Give a little money, help a little poor,
Something very tiny can grow to so much more
You have to take in the whole thing to see
Why you are here and what you will come to be
It doesn't waltz in, you have to answer the call
Just helping people isn't nearly close to all
You may not know, but you changed my life today
Made my whole time better in each and every way
I am happier now just because of you
As to why you make me feel this way, I haven't got a clue!
Answer me this question: tell me true, don't lie
How you made a difference and don't forget the why!
If I lived another billion years
If I cried another billion tears
Nothing could ever change the fact that you're my friend
You always stuck with me to the very bitter end
I feel more safe when you are around
If ever I am in trouble you are always found
When you are close at hand I feel stronger
With your faith in me I can hold on a bit longer
I am there for you now and for always
I am beside you walking in the hallways.
I lived
a life filled with futility,
where each day faded
into another.

I live
a life filled with moments,
each one humbling me
into sanity.

I will live
a life when I reach out to
others still fading
into oblivion.

— The End —
