Wake Up

By brokensme

When will people see what is already in the light?

While the grass is growing in the front lawns of a house

They'd rather live in the dessert and eat dirt?

 

It makes no sence

Open your eyes

There is more to life then this

 

Life isn't a game you can pause and rewind

It doesn't work like that

You choose right here and now

 

You cannot undo your past mistakes

So get over them and pick yourself up

This is the only life you got

 

You can shape your future

No matter what other people tell you

You just need to start now

 

Learn from what you have done

And find the message hidden inside it

It may help you later on

 

Only you can save yourself

Others can only try to help

Until you let them in

 

Dont get down on yourself

This only brings rage

And it will never help you like a true friend
