What do you do when Life tells you no?
What do you do when you have no where to go?
What do you say when your friends turn their backs?
What do you say when the whole world attacks?
When all that you have loved is gone,
When you feel that you just don't belong,
When you don't understand what its about,
When all you want to do is scream and shout
All the happy memories, all the happy faces
All washed aside and replaced with sad places
So what do you do when there seems nothing left?
Do you cry, do you scream, do you resort to petty theft?
The theft of others hearts, ruining their lives
Spreading the pain that rules you inside
Or do you step up, brush yourself off
Face the harsh ruler of life, and tell her to fuck off
Grab a machete, forge a new path
Open the forest with all of your wrath
And follow the path where no others have tred
And leaving a line of the pain you have bled
Go to a clearing which few have ever seen
Wash in a stream to make yourself clean
Look to the Sun with a twinkle in your eye
Then shout to the World that you shall never die!
