This is the end,
I cannot go on
This is the finish line,
I have to finish strong
Running faster than the scenery beside me,
I have to continue to be
You make me see I have all to live for, but I was careless as I watched you pour your heart out
I can honestly say I see the light you were trying to create,
Thank you for being the only one to change my fate
Roses bloom and the ice is still there, but you have given me a second chance to care
You have made a second guesser out of me,
Someone who wants to believe
The winds pick up speed, and I can feel the end crashing in,
Maybe it is in the background, the saturated canvas I will forever blend
When times are hard, and I have left your side,
Please bear with me and continue your stride
We shouldn't want to die
We are people, fighting to believe,
Girls just wanting a change
The water still falls over the dam we have built, and the roses still wilt
But the end is farther away
The pain is always there like a thorn on a stem,
But this is not the end
Take my hand, and wrap the noose of excuses around us,
I am sorry I left, sorry to cause the fuss
The stars are still shining, and the moon is still hung high,
We can make it through this higher tide
Take my hand, and we will get away,
To a place far away and stay for days
We can make it if you can re-gift me a chance, but I will still sway like a weakened branch
I will fight for you if you are willing to do the same,
I can be tame
I am going to paint a picture of desperation, death, and hopelessness,
outlined is hope, love, and relief
Isn't it funny it took me so long to see,
It's the little things you have to be grateful for
Roots sprout and the sun shines,
This is not my time to die
You've shown me that digging a deeper grave does not make it easier to bury,
And while the sky has snow flurries,
You remind me of the person I aspire to be
And when the heat is too much, and my mind is focused on survival,
Know death and I are rivals
I will not give in, I will keep strong
Because that is what I have been doing all along
I see the mistake of tearing myself down,
But now my right mind has the crown
Bluebirds chirp, and the wind blows softly,
The death of me would be very costly
I love you, and I want you back,
If you need more time, I will not collapse
Could you ever accept me again,
I no longer want to deny and pretend,
That the words you speak mean nothing to me
I want to be, to continue to live
To be alive and without my own anchor
I shall forget my lies and dry my eyes,
Because you are the one watching over my skies
