You give me every reason
to feel inadequate.
Following this cookie cutter template
just to find myself, permanently under construction.

Returning to moments
when we left time behind.
Looking for feelings, blind.
Blamed the love of adolescents

Reflecting on mirror images,
falling out of control,
realizing life changes
Where did it all go?

not the same people.
not the same person.
no longer a couple
so, you do what you do best and move on

my one and only,
i lost you,
i loved you..
mistakenly

no longer a baby, no longer your baby
Just a lady singing a heartbroken lullaby

Everyone's a genius
Everyone's perfect
Everyone's loved
By someone.

I know I'm young,
And I know I make mistakes,
But I didn't ask you what I should have done
I asked you how to fix this.

Why are my dreams unreachable?
And everything to learn's unteachable?
What I want I can't get,
And I can't even try yet!
You always tell me to organize my time,
But number one on your list,
Is different than mine.
"What happens to a dream deferred,
does it dry up like a raisin in the sun?"
Yes I think,
If that means the dream is done.

I'm all done.
So why aren't I glad?
No more work.
Why am I sad?
I'm not gonna miss it,
That I can guarantee,
And I turned in my hardest...
So what's wrong with me?

Silent Night,
Cold winds softly blow.

Soft sand crunches,
As the Humvees roll.

Into the Silent Night,
Into the Valley of Death.

A flare sparks,
A loud sound screeches in the night.

The Humvees stop.

Bright orange light,
Shouts of Pain follows,

Then all is quiet.

Cold Night,
In the Valley of Death,
The Humvees stop.

Silent Night.

I don't want to cry anymore
I don't want to try anymore
To plaster on a fake smile
To pretend like everything's okay
I just want to laugh freely
I just want to finally be happy
Without trying so ******* hard
Think it's possible?
Think it's plausible?
I sure hope so,
But **** praying anymore.

I will be happy or I won't
I will succeed or I shan't
but I'll be ****** if I don't try
and if you dare to ask me why
I'll tell you time is on my side

And I have had just enough to know
that I'll have more to reach and grow
and in the end, it's all the same
for we all die early.

I will be happy or I won't
on that day I see the end
I will have a final answer
that my life will build and mend.

But for now I'm glad to know
Oh Lord, it is good to know
that time will always be on my side.

I will be happy or I won't
but I'll be ****** if I don't try.
