you say life is so exhilarating
and liberating
but oh, my dear
so is death

Put your hands up
If you're wanting things you can't control to finally change for the better
Put your hands up
If you're wanting something more out of this rock
Put your hands up
If you're tired of being victimized
Put your hands up
If you're tired of being treated like your nothing
Put your hands up
For those who don't have hands
Put your hands up
For those who don't have legs
Put your hands up
For those who don't have Mothers and Fathers
Put your hands up
For the hungry
Put your hands up
For the suffering
Put your hands up
For the poor
Put your hands up
If you're cognizant that your problems are just a tiny fraction of a molten galaxy-share your pain with the rest.
It's a great way to make sure unity survives

I remember the time we nearly held hands
such a fleeting, beautiful, timeless moment
but then reality struck
and we went back to "just friends" plan

unless you hold the key to happiness,
which no on ever does
your life is just a collection of
dried up tears,
wasted time,
useless dreams,
unsent letters,
words left unsaid,
feelings unfelt,
and
bad decisions
