Hey, you, yeah you with the smile from ear to earYet you know you're falling apart on the inside, yeah, I know how you feel
It's okay to fall apart sometimes, because I fall apart too
I know how devastated you feel inside, for I've felt it too
I know you're utterly and desperately exhausted
You're tired of fighting against yourself and feeling as if you were Moana standing at the edge of the water wondering when you'll be set free
There's so much pressure in your chest and you feel like you're going to explode at any given moment
They tell you to 'snap out of it', to 'wake up and smell the coffee' but the truth is sometimes you have get up to make your own damn cup of coffee
Sometimes we need to build ourselves once more to get our happy ending
Every so often there's a cracked foundation in us that'll lead to our demise
Weak pillars that won't support our weight
So, we must start from the ground up until we began to feel again
The process isn't fun or easy or even fast but know this, the Sun will rise on us again and all this will be worth it one day
A new era is beginning for us
You never thought you could feel this way again but there's a small spark inside of you that just won't die out
You've packed your bags and bought a one-way ticket out of this wretched town
After everything it's finally time to begin again,
To begin to love and to feel love again
To fully enjoy life and not just sit there like a bystander watching the world go by in a blur
But it'll be alright, no need to cry anymore, this is a new beginning, it's time to embrace the light within us
