Why are we so broken
Why do we all claim to be depressed
Why are we ruining our future
Why are we so drunk on the thought of being in love

Why are we so upset
Why are we so sad
Why are we so dependent
Why are we so needy

Why do we spend our whole lives
Growing into people we promised to never be
Why do we spend our whole lives
Being upset over things and people
Who are not worth it

We've got an entire life ahead of us
Why are we wasting it like it's worth nothing
When was it okay for a 11:11 wish
To turn into a suicide note

When was it okay for birthday candles
To turn into death wishes
We're all to **** young to be this upset
We're all too **** young to wish upon death

It's life and it's bound to be difficult
That doesn't give you any right to end it
You get up
And be a man
And face it

You walk right into it,
**Not away from it.

Dear reader,
I have hope.
I found it buried
beneath ashes
I had made.

I'm okay now.

I once burned
the bridges
that kept me sane
but I've rebuilt them
and crossed them.

I am safe now.

I neglected
to tell you
what I had done
and how it felt
to be freed.

I am freed now.

Come with me
cross that bridge
and find a way
to be okay,
to fly.

Come fly with me.
You came and shine the dark skies
I can't stop gazing upon your beauty
Even though I tried to close my eyes
Your beauty runs through my mind
A  fine display of colors in the sky
A beautiful sight for everyone to see
Like the skies was colored by angels
And I'm here amazed by its beauty
Oh Aurora, your beauty is none to compare
A sight that you just can't resist to stare
But you really have caught my eyes
When you woke up from your slumber
When you rose during the sunrise
I couldn't dream of a single thing better

A man walk towards the bright light
Lighting a cigarette as he moved on
Thinking about his messed up life
Mistakes he made since he was born.

The street was quiet and empty
The night was filled with stars
His hands were very filthy
His body filled with deep scars

He was a total mess outside
Inside his heart kept on going
To him life is not a joy ride
Where people go on singing

The problems were always there
Playing tricks on people everyday
It is a burden we all must bear
Did anybody said that life was fair
**** it or **** me
Destroy don't let it be
A monster hidden within
The gloomy shadows of my heart
It wants to break free
And let death lingers it's path
So **** it now don't let me be
A monster that is within me
Rays of sunlight shining through the window
Rays of sunlight shining through the empty hall
The hall which used to be filled with people before
The hall now remains empty without a single soul

A man went through these great halls once before
A man who walk through the two gigantic doors
A memory which the man could only remember
A memory which there was only pain and suffer

A story which has many of it's very own secrets
A story which the man kept with his own reasons
A life which left the man with the feeling regret
A life  the man had lived in a man made prison
I have so many things to say
Though I have forgotten a few
I remembered how much I care
I always hope in my arms you'd stay
Never leave my sight
Never leave my mind
Never leave for a second
Just say that you're mine
I know that this is not enough
To prove how much I'm in love
If you walk on and just leave
I will surely fall down and cry
Cause you are the air I breathe
The sun that fills up my sky
So please don't you ever go away
Promise me in my heart you'll stay
The sound of nature echos around
There is only peace to be found
The nature offers only tranquility
An escape from the noise of cars
An escape from the hectic city
A place that offers you sanctuary
Why must there be war?
Why can't we all live in peace?
What is it all worth for?
Why can't we avoid all this?
All the blood of the innocent
Falling slowly by the street
The lives of an innocent person
Death lingers and slowly it creeps
Gunfire blows the silence
People running in fear
Why is there no balance?
Why is there even war here?
The sad tragedy has only left me
Wondering in my own curiosity
Why can't we just spread love?
Why must we spread hate?
Can't we all live together peacefully?
Because honestly all this war has left me
Wondering in my own curiosity
