I cannot find my worth
Not in the letters on my name,
especially not in the look on your eyes, nor in the sound of your voice.

I cannot find my worth elesewhere,
nor the point of everything.
Only the point of the daggers of your command,
urging me to run, when my body was limp and couldn't move.

But move anyway.
One step at a time, away from that edge.
One day, all will make sense.
Yes, laugh young ones!

Laugh as loud as you can.
Be sure of yourself,
make fun of everything.

Laugh, young ones,
laugh like a hyena
as you run down the streets.

Laugh with your friends,
enjoy this teen years of yours
for when you see what's life
you'll see no fun anymore.

Though you pushed me away,
Cause I saw the chaos in your heart,
And I wanted to help you find peace.

Too much of the ending
in which
we leave a loved one or friend in
and for us
it's to begin again,

there's nothing new in this
we all reach the finale and
give that final kiss
farewell.

But it is difficult
we all know that.
