Only Life

Tears are forming in your eyes

A storm is warning in the sky
The end of the world it seems

You bend down and you fall on your knees

Well, get back on your feet
Don't look away

Don't run away

Hey baby, it's only life

Don't lose your faith

Don't run away

Hey baby, its only life

It's only life
You were always playing hard

Never could let down your guard

But you can't win

If you never give in

To that voice within

Saying pick up your chin

Baby, let go of it
Take your hesitance

And your self-defense

Leave them behind, it's only life

Don't be so afraid

Of facing everyday

Just take your time, it's only life

I'll be your stepping-stone

No, don't be so alone

Just hold on tight, it's only life

Blinded by Truth

Tell all the truth, but tell it slant.
Success in circuit lies.
Too bright for our infirm delight,
The truth's superb surprise.
As lightning to the children eased
With explanation kind,
The truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind.

- Emily Dickinson -

Wish



"Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now,
...wish right now...wish right now."
