Future

Theres an upside to everything
Everything including false hope
It teaches you how to love
More importantly, how to cope
Theres a downside to everything like love
Because it confuses your heart
And you know it's not leading anywhere
Right from the very start
Theres an upside to every relationship
It prepares you for the one next in line
It shows you how to live your life
Carry on, and pretend you are fine
Theres a downside to everything like death
You lose the ones you love so dear
It completely screws us round
But in the end, makes it all crystal clear
The upside of us being together
Is that we're in love, we truly are
Our hopes, dreams and aspirations
Can go as far as the furthest star
The downside to this is the distance
And not being "us", we are not "one"
No matter what we both may think
Our futures have already begun
