The pain you hold inside
the lies you have to hide
the pain that makes you cry
you keep it in
no one knows
the thunderstorm within your mind
peace eludes you every time
so helpless
you just want to be happy
don't have to do this
just open your eyes
to a bright new life
pain my ravage you
but there is a way to fix it
if you don't give up on anything
you will succeed in everything
there is a way out
out of this darkness your drowning in
you scream and no one hears
or at least that's how it seems
but you mean the world
to people you don't know
friends you've yet to meet
love's you've yet to see
life's worth more than tears, more than hate
more than anything
though you knew you loved her
she didn't mean the same
they all told you to move on
but she's holding you back
without even trying to
she causes you nothing but shame
you asked for a friendship
she gave you a death wish
you were lost
beat down, bruised and confused
but kid you got a chance
turn your back and take it
you call yourself a failure
but man your worth much more
quit wallowing in desperate thoughts
you beg
get on your knees and beg to God
save me lord is what you say
yet you ignore the calls he's made
kid you only got one life
don't let it fade away
