this  world  can  be  dangerous 
bleak,  wild  and  careless 

you're  living  without  knowing 
how  many  days  you'll  ride 

every  day  you  face  with
the  problems  you  think
they  are  bigger  than  'you'
but  they  are  smaller  than
the  whole  universe

mini  world,  bright  sky
time  is  gold;  it  will  fly

no  one  is  getting  it 
no  one  is  feeling  it 

what's  in  your  veins 
what  lead  you  to  the  chains 
seem  every  little  is  in  a  mess 
like  every  human  is  in  stress 

walking  on  the  sharpest  bridge 
thinking  I'm  ready  to  stop 
maybe  I  can  lay  here  and  flop 
on  to  the  cold  concrete  ground 
am  I  ready  to  beat  this  round, 
what's  next  or  what's  behind 

how  hard  it  is  to  feel  kind 
when  it's  all  making  you  blind 
and  here's  where  you  can
show  your  difference
by  being  kind

noise  trauma,  unnecessary  drama 
everyone  wants  to  be  an  alpha 
race  of  fame  and  goals  to  gain 
end  of  nature  and  crazy  bane 
after  this,  I'll  never  be  the  same 

relationships  have  a  journey 
which  starts,  goes  and  ends 
I  found  One  has  no  'end'
GOD  IS  MY  BEST  FRIEND.

first, it was a dream, maybe more than one
then it turned to an endless nightmare
because you were smiling not to the face of mine
saw you with him under the tree
there was no doubt that he was perfect
while I wasn't worth it

Wistful,  cheerless,
used  to  be  brave,  
and  fearless. 

Liars,  haters 
have  been  walking,  
around  me  these  days.

Charming,  well  educated, 
that's  who  you  showed  to  me 
before  you  shot  me

I  thought  you 
were  charming.

I  thought  you 
were  well  educated. 

I  thought  you
 needed  me.

It's  all  gone 
when  you  left  me.

I  was  just  looking 
for  some  friends, 
Now;  I'm  only  looking
for the  real  ones.

Couldn't  realize  which 
ones  were  fake  before, 
When  did  hellos  start 
to  be  called  as  goodbyes, 
After  some  while,  I 
know  which  ones  are. 

Couldn't  stand  to  this 
anymore,  faded, 
Feeling  so  alone  in 
this  crowded  room, 
Can't  love  like  this,
it  has  exceeded, 
Feeling  like  I've 
overdosed.  Wasted.

Every  colour  was  taking 
me  back  to  you, 
Every  mark  was  pushing 
me  away  from  you. 

Spring  hasn't  begun  yet.
It  was  not  warm  at  all.

Just  cold  with  sadness, 
darkness  with  secrets,   
strangers  with  lies. 

Charming  strangers 
are  everywhere. 

They've  been  around
for  centuries.

They  look  like 
Venus  or  Mars, 

inside  they're 
like  black  holes.

Pluto  who  I've 
always  been. 

An  outsider?   

no,  no,  no 

A  fighter.

If you stop expecting miracles from people,
you can never get hurt by them;
instead, if you initiate the expectation
of blessings only from God,
your heart will bloom again.

I'll be thinking of you
on new year's day.

I'll be missing you on the
first day of the rest of my life
like you had never, ever left;
can still see your silhouette.

it moves across the sky;
then melts away as it
says "goodbye."

You came fast into my life.
Like a roller coaster,
Told me that you wanted me,
But all you did was stealing my dreams.
Took my innocence, my friends
You tried to take the good in me.
Now you're gone too,
Left me in the darkness,
My heart was shaking,
When I thought about you.
Now the pain is gone.
I don't care about you.

Out there
Just walking

Thinking of
Why I was hiding

Tasting the weather
It's pretty cold

Lip-syncing to
Another song

The moon looks calm
Stars are blazing

I want to hear
a music full of dreams
Hopes and diamonds
Light in the darkness

Never was a warrior
Still want to fight

There is a fork in the road.
A fork will set us both.

Don't want to go back
Know that it's too late;
Still, now I can be
Whoever I want

My screams were cutting my ears
Those walls were teetering my fears
Could not stand near or to here
Wanted to show my heroes.

Lost my innocent dreams when listening
to everyone else, what they've been saying.

They threw up on me their bullets.
Then they threw me into the holes.

Tried to breathe but I was under the ocean
The voice I heard told me "That's impossible."
Something in me was becoming invisible
That's how I lost myself in the last battle.

Lost hope and a vast amount of friends
They were influencing all the weekends
Days weren't including any happy ends
They took something in me till it ends.

Wanted to escape from this maze.
Locked into the prison of the mind
Started looking to the beginning.

Suddenly the fears stopped when
I realized that I wasn't injured
I was not broken, faded inside.

They will always be there
Promised me not to hear
What they add more to my fear.

you  are  in  your  room  at  night,

it  is  not  enormous  but  big

you  look  at  it,  but  it  is  not  clear

how  will  you  open  it 
because  it  is  locked 
you  don't  know

there  are  two  notes  on  the  box 

the first  one:

yourself  on  learning
something  new."

Thought, I had lost me
when I hadn't got this goal.

Maybe a part of me had become
somebody that I had needed to
meet too.

It was sentimental although
they said: "you won't break through!"

There were sharp stones on the track,
thorns could bleed me really bad.

Some said walk away, some said
don't even hesitate in this room.

I got pretty occupied with the world,
more than I need, (more than we need).

There is no turn backwards now
because all we can have is now.

How precious is 'now' that you won't
have this moment in another 'now'.

Why are you wasting your tears while you
can evaluate these golden hours to shine?

Therefore you don't have to impress or prove
anything to them, Some will still be 'wow!'

The moment will end, will stay in the past,
another "now" will come till every "now" of you ends.

Now is remarkably precious, use it wisely;
before it gets late to complete all your amends.

Don't be afraid to die because 'death' isn't disappearing
it's changing your vehicle to get to another land.

Don't rush your life to become old or get what you want;
the process is where you can still decide.

Decide what you want to add to your vehicle
the lands you can live forever, heaven or hell.

If you use your days flawlessly in the best,
you may have better 'now's in heaven forever.

"Last a little longer!"
The heart is getting colder.

My mind trapped in the ocean.
And I am trapped in my mind.
This place is full of slow motion.
Feel like I can not determine.

Bruh, tell me what happens
after when the lights out?

Keep asking me the same thing, 'why?'
May see the answer with magnifying.

Might look cold from the outside
But I am struggling in the dark side
There is nowhere to get lost or hide
They can't hear my scream from inside.

Searched a switch, packed the emotions.

"You gotta go, you gotta go!"
My feet started to numb.

Keep pushing the limit to overcome
Heard a voice asking the net income
Am I ready now, for the next scrum

I know that I can't give up.
I want peace of mind.
