Failure

Life is cold
Always looking for something
Something you can never hold

In a life full of hardships
We always ask for some tips
To get by in this life
Like a game full of strife

Why are they lucky?
To be born rich and happy
While we get told
To just listen and fold
In on ourselves
Like a slave
To always behave

No questions allowed
Or you'll look like a fool
So better to be a tool
Than try to look 'cool'
With that sinking feeling you have
Full of anxiety and fear
In secret we show tear

But is this really all life has to offer
While we look onto the yonder
We close our eyes and ponder
"What if"
What if? Why don't we ask
"Why not"
If life is but a rough journey
Why not take your chance
And live in glory

This life full of betrayal
It's our fault for picking people
People who are unloyal
This view on life is a bitter portrayal

When you feel like you're down
On rock bottom, can't help but frown
I chose to be a clown
To be other people's happiness
To help them overcome this giddiness
So open your eyes
It's not yet your demise

When you hit rock bottom
The only way left is up
And that's where we shall go
It's ok to say "no"
In your life you've been too kind
Waiting for someone just to find
To find you who has chosen
To not be a burden
To shoulder all the problem

I know how you feel
So take your time and heal
Maybe give thanks to your meal
Differentiate what's fake and real
Choosing the hard way
Even when you're in a disarray
I will be here
To ask if you're still okay

You may say "yes"
But I know you need rest
Sleep early and I'll pray
For you to always be better than
"Ok"

Talk to me when you need help
I'll be waiting with open arms
I'll keep you away from harm
Away from pain
In this never ending rain

Life isn't just cold
Stop hiding or you'll mold
Be strong and be bold
