The world is a bad place
And I think everyone knows
This feeling of drowning, although there is nothing to drown in
Nothing but our thoughts
This feeling of being tired of living, although there is so much to live for
And so much to die for
But there is light
In the darkness
And it will help you to see things in a different way
I'm not saying that one day, you will step out of this dark tunnel in a better world with endless skies and no rain
I'm not saying that everything will be fine
But if you find this light, it will guide you through the darkness
It will be your friend and your hope in lonely nights
The journey will not be over, but it will be easier to handle
New storms will come, but you will have your storm lamp lighting up the dark
There will always be stones in your way, but if you don't lose hope, if you trust your light, you will be able to see them
And you won't fall
Sadly, I can't tell you how to find your personal light
There is no tutorial, no universal validity
You can't go to a store and buy it, like you would if it was an actual lantern
I could talk on and on in metaphors and figures of speech
But it won't help you
I could write page after page and draw pictures in your mind
And you would probably laugh at me
Because I'm so naiv
And maybe I am
Maybe I haven't experienced enough of this pain to understand your position
Maybe I'm way to hopeful at day
Cause I can only see the shadows when they are haunting me
But I want you to remember that life has it brights sides
And even though they seem to be far away
There is always some light in your heart
So do whatever makes you feel better
Go out and search for the light that lives inside of you
Because once you find it, you will have a shoulder to lean on
A save room to return to if life doesn't go well
Don't lose hope friends
