Making It Through This Complicated Life

Isn't it funny how life is a played out game?
Reality is what it is...
Where nothing's the same

But have you ever thought back;
To when times were really tough?
When you and your friends could have fun
By just talking about random stuff?

We play our lives out
Always hoping for the best
But somehow
It always seems like everything's a mess

Parent(s) talking about your future
"You're going to have to know what you're going to do"
they say
And no matter how far always it seems
There's no more time for spectacular dreams

No one is perfect
That's a sure fact
Where it's only your friends/family you can trust
To always know they have your back

"All I ask for is a simple hug each day"
That's what your daddy always tells you
Because he knows the next day is one less day
He gets to help you get through

And with your mom always being frustrated with the way that you act
You try so hard to please her
But a rapid change is something that you lack

You try so hard to do everything right
You try so hard, that you don't get any sleep at night
You concentrate so hard on what your profession could be
Even if you still have as many years until college as three

The years will go by so fast
That you should make an attempt to change
So that you will have the best of memories
The best of memories that will always last

You want to ask for help, but are to shy to do so
But no one can go into your mind and figure out what's wrong
You have to speak up, because they won't know how to comfort and help
you get through

You don't want to look back at your life
And say,"I haven't changed, have I?"
Knowing it would have been best to end your life
To completely die, and not be put through all this misery and strife

But somehow you will manage to make it through
Because it's friends and family that will always help you
All through life is when they will help you
Whether you are feeling happy, angry, miserable, and/or blue
