Sometimes you have to pretend like you're okay
Because you don't want to put your emotions on display
You distract yourself by a reading a book or listening to a song
Because the words in them hit a heart's string and it best describes what you can't say
And sometimes you want to leave the past behind; you want to trust again
But you're afraid to take a leap ;because those you confided in caused you pain
You start to wonder what if you're repeating the same mistake; you can't afford anymore heartache
What if people can't really change?
What if they're all the same?
But then a spark of hope appears and you start collecting the pieces of your life
You start to forget all the hard times; still there's a chance for you to survive
You begin to see the glass half full instead of empty;
And you accept the fact that everything that happened built up your identity
See, everyone has a different story, different characters and different starts
But the way it all ends leaves us all with the same scars
Still somehow you have to smile even though you don't want to
Because your mind is telling your heart someday you will make it through
So now it's up to you ; to stay where you are or to break all the walls
because life is short and it doesn't stop, so let your doubts go
and as soon as you do ; you will start to see a whole new world that you never once knew
