My Own Songs

You Can Rest Now

Ooh ooh oh little boy.
You've had nothing but stress,
Fighting day in and day out,
Your mind is killing your soul,
And your heart is silently breaking.
Deafened ears won't hear your cry,
You can't experience a warm embrace,
Your tears are enough to make you drown,
Ooh you feel locked inside your hole,
And you can't even stop shaking.
/Oh little boy I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry you went through the torment,
You went through the fires of hell,
You fought and kept the demons away,
And you kept yourself from free falling.
Now you don't have to constantly worry,
Your heart and mind won't be heavy like cement,
You can come out of your casted shell,
You can move freely instead of having to sway,
And you don't have to worry about failing!
Ooh ooh oh little boy you can rest now./
Ooh ooh oh little boy
You lock your emotions and throw away the key,
Not letting anyone in to see if you're alright.
You distance from everyone to not feel a thing,
Making you look like you are a kind of monster.
All you wanted was to feel a bit of joy.
On the inside you were screaming for help like a banshee,
While on the outside you'd fool everyone with your smile.
And when no one was looking you'd make yourself bleed,
Not for attention but for the need to feel even a stir!
OH OH OOH Little boy!
/CHORUS/
Come on now little boy,
You survived through it all!
Yes you've attempted suicide,
But God wouldn't let you die those days,
And now I'm telling you to rest,
Rest that tired heart of yours now.
You wanted happiness and now you shall.
The blade is no longer in your side,
And you can't what the voice inside says.
Now you can hope for the best,
Which is finally having peace.
/Ooh ooh oh little boy it's okay,
No more tears shall be shed tonight.
No more fighting through the fires,
No more of your life will be shattered,
And no more blood shall bleed through the seams.
Ooh you can open your eyes today,
See how much you've grown despite.
Shout your success above the spires!
Show how you've survived through being battered!
Listen and help others who can't show their screams!
Ooh ooh oh little boy on the inside
Oh oh ooh little boy you can rest now./
