There's a World Out There

"The Grand essentials of happiness are: something to do, something to love, and something to hope for."---Allan K. Chalmers
*For those who have given up hope, depressed, lonely. And those who complain about their lives without doing anything to help their problems
--------------------------------------

Depressed and sad inside
There's nothing left to hide
Stuck in your own mind
Making your eyes blind

You never leave your room
That's good, you assume
So answer these questions now
The things God have bestowed

You see that tree over there
The storm have made it bare
But isn't it still standing
Isn't it somehow still waiting

There's always hope for you
You just need to know what to do
Know where to look and find
The pieces of your mind

You cry, you hurt, because you're alone
Then go on ahead, out of your comfort zone
There's plenty of stuff for you to do
There's plenty of stuff for you to go through

Indulge in the brilliant colors of art
Use your hands to break clay apart
Paint the hues of the changing sky
There are so many new things to try

Touch the piano and it's beautiful keys
Make great music the way you see
Loud and fast or soft and calm
Anything to keep away self-harm

You lack love, that's what you say
But who was that lady you talked to today
She seemed so concerned about something
She was so kind, gentle and caring

Was that your mom, your neighbor or friend
Not everything in life has to end
Sure, you have been hurt in many ways
But you've also had so many of those happy days

There's a world out there waiting for you
Stop mourning yourself and just get through
You're wasting your time on self-pity
There's no help in "me, me, me"

Get off you bum and wipe your tears
A brighter future is coming near
Open your mind and drop your knife
Learn the responsiblity of living your life
