If I had to write a song from my heart,
Something to set the world and I apart,
Would you take notice or even care?
Would you appreciate the truth it had to bear?
How would you feel about my past?
A story of a sixteen year old that moved too fast,
The declarance of young love and a lie,
The innocence of an eye that only knew how to cry,
Would you value my hopes my dreams?
What if I told you everthing was coming apart at the seams?
Do you think the honesty would be too much to bear?
And to your eye would it bring a tear?
Because there's some things that need to be said,
How can I be so alive yet feel so dead?
He stole my heart and played my mind,
But in the end strength I did find,
I turned my back and left him there,
Another page turned with care.
Chapter two is living on borrowed time,
A sister's love would be a wasted line,
Was that too harsh or am I right?
Have you opened your eyes and seen the light?
If there's one thing I've ever learned,
When it comes to family, leave no rock unturned,
Children will grow and make a life of their own,
So much wasted time and you should have known,
You'd regret the day you didn't take the time,
To sit and share a hour or two that was mine,
That day will come, then it'll end,
For now we must continue around this bend,
This page has been short yet far from sweet,
I told you my honesty was hard to beat.
Chapter three is the saddest yet,
There's no turning back no safety net,
How can I explain life is but a trial?
Behind all the joy lurks something vile.
The only thing that leaves us pure are our scars,
Their memories comfort us and free us from these bars,
They remind us we once were weak,
We are only strongest at our saddest peak,
It's so easy to loose your way,
When you can't trust and won't believe what they say.
One minute your happy, they next your sad,
When you can't stop thinking of what we had,
Tears well up and threaten to flow,
To this day you dealt the hardest blow,
How can I pretend I don't care,
When these emotions are too much to bear,
Hurting myself is something I won't do,
I can't blame myself for something caused by you,
After you left, pain became my friend,
But I grew strong and put that to an end,
Chapter four is the final and the last,
We'll dwell once more in the past,
I'll open my heart and give you a tour,
And I'll share with you something more,
No matter how hard it is with family and friends,
There the ones that'll be there until the end.
Love isn't always real, and far from kind,
But being strong comes from the mind,
So here I wrote a song fron my heart,
Did it set the world and I apart?
