It is for the better cause,
To not cause at all.
For me to call out,
Screaming your name in doubt.
You think I do not know,
But the truth is I know all
I know that you don't,
Hiding in darkness
I use light as a shield
Not as a disguise, for I am not hiding
But fighting.
Worthiness to this cause,
To my life comes a pause
Bearing you in mind,
Baring the nudity of kind.
To me, from you,
From me, to you
Alive it brings me,
Happiness it feeds
But specified feelings are not true
It's not just the blue.
The red, the dark feelings are alive
Just as the happy feelings.
So for this better cause to be alive,
The sadness returns,
Following right behind.
I think you do not know,
But the truth is perhaps you may
I will not tell you directly,
If you find out, it wont be this way.
As I start to feel again, I feel better
For the better cause
But the sadness is revived just as well,
I do not regret this,
I do not regret you.
But the truth is, the better cause to me
Is to not feel,
It is for a better cause I fight,
My sword I hold, I might
The cause is to stay happy,
Stop sad,
Retain the life I never had.
With you by my side,
You help me in ways you don't,
You are the better cause.
