There will come a time

we'll be thrown on the floor,

cries for help will be silent

we'll be tethered to the door.

There will come a time

that we'll be cut off at last,

and the pain won't subside

we'll be unfairly forced to fast.

There will come a time

when the ones we love are distant,

but if we fall, if we break down,

they may leave us in an instant.

There will come a time

when we have to make a choice,

we'll be rushed down the wrong path

led by a haunting voice.

There will come a time

when not a soul understands,

the world will cease to notice

the marks you leave on your hands.

There will come a time

when you just want to give in,

and you'll be torn between worlds

so come, and lift your chin.

Listen to my words

please hear what I have to say

for even the most horrid storm

never fails to fade away.

Yes times will be tough

you will reach your breaking point

but it doesn't mean you can't be fixed

doesn't mean you don't annoint.

Break free of those chains,

defeat one at a time,

until you can finally breathe

and walk in a straight line.

Look way up at the sun,

gaze at the beautiful sky

take deep breaths, 'cause you can make it

go on now, and try.
