Is anybody there?
I'm lost and confused.
Does anybody care?
Will anybody take some time
from their fucked up lives
to save one child w/ one last prayer?
The world today has its problems.
The people have their words, their money, their perfect lives.
But underneath, we have the same face.
Something that's grotesque, that's ugly.
Regardless, everyone has that same fate.
We all Die.
As simple as it seems, we won't accept it.
We deny it.
With our money.
With our power.
We try to control our lives.
It's no use.
In the end, death grabs us all.
No point to live.
Faded dreams.
Long gone illusions
of the life this thing could have been.
We walk around
Blank stares in our eyes.
Our soulds are dead,
Our heads messed up.
Reality sinks in.
Precious children.
Full of life.
Give them five years.
They'll see life's real side.
Two sides to every coin.
Two emotions-love and hate.
Nothing in between.
Nothing that matters, at least.
Live while you live.
Soon enough we'll all die.
Do what you want--no matter what
I'll die inside.
Everyone's falling
Slipping away
So many questions asked.
Nothing left to say.
Everyone's drifting.
Pulling apart.
Our lives are constantly changing.
No room to begin a new start.
Everyone's wandering.
All direction lost.
Maybe we'll find our way back.
But what will be the cost?
Everyone's laughing.
Joking around.
The mask we wear day to day
Never reveals a sound.
Everyone's crying.
Nothing shown.
We smile with each other.
And break down all alone.
in so much pain that all you can
do is rock back and forth and cry?
Have you ever been
so confused that you can't
even think to ask why?
Have you ever seen
all your hopes and dreams
fade before your eyes?
You can't reach out.
Help can't be given.
Your on your own.
Lost and alone.
And you don't understand why.
To all of you who've felt this way,
and to those of you who don't.
Beware, this world's not fair.
Beware of the situations your thrust.
Beware, life's not fair.
Beware of the ones you trust.
Tears streaming, nite after nite;
slowly but surely, I die each time.
No one to lean on, there's no support that can be given;
going through the day, I pretend to be strong.
I can't show the real me, there's no point to it;
people have their own problems, their own answers to find.
So I'll avoid them, because I can't be there to help;
I can't deal with their problems, I can't even handle mine.
Hoping no one sees me, yet that they'll know that I'm gone;
I hide anywhere I can, all for attention.
I want someone to see I'm falling, drifting down;
I want someone to catch me, but no one's waiting.
So alone I'll falter, alone I'll die bleeding;
It's my choice to be alone, an option I shouldn't be allowed to have.
But that doesn't matter, no one seems to care;
When all is said and done, there will be no one to blame this on.

What would you do
If you found the world you loved
Crashing all around
And all you could do is watch?
What would you do
If the one you thought you loved
Turned out not to be true
And you had to mend a broken soul?
What would you do
If nothing can help?
No one can be there to lift you up.
And you didn't have the strength on your own.
What would you do?
Would you give up?
And let the world win?
Or rise above them all,
And show them that you are strong.
But if you just give up,
That is fine too.
No one wants to face that pain,
And no one wants to be alone.
But to save themselves, they push you away.
They're afraid to remember that pain.
And no one cares for people like you.
Lost
All is gone
falling, falling
When all is done
Nothing left
but broken hearts
Broken spirits
Lives ripped apart
Anger
Depression
Empty souls
drifting, drifting
Hearts full of holes.
Nothing left
but broken hearts.
Broken spirits
Lives ripped apart.
Sadness
Tears
No hope left.
searching, searching
Death hands one last gift.
Nothing left
but froken hearts
Broken spirits
Lives ripped apart.
