When all you see is nothing but darkness
Don't be afraid. You'll eventually see the light.
When all that's felt is the freezing coldness
Don't stop. You'll feel the heat as I try to hug you tight.
When you feel like your life's like a mess
Don't get troubled and just keep moving
When you're so down and you felt so hopeless
Remember that I'm just hear and I'm giving you my words so you should keep going.
Life is not a bed of roses nor sweetness of pastries and cupcakes
It's a roller coaster ride and you should expect falling down
It's a stem full of thorns and a sour taste of spoiled milkshake
It's not always as colorful as rainbows, but gloomy with shades of black and brown.
Sometimes, even when the sun is shining so bright
Your own world is battling against thunder and lightning of a storm
Though you see how the moon brightens the night
Your downfall often turns the table down and your feelings transform.
There are times that fate is being unkind
You think that's the luckiest day of your life
But a moment later, you suddenly go to a corner and started crying with overwhelming feelings making you blind
Sometimes, you even think that hurting yourself will end everything, so you get up and choose to hold a knife.
Oh dear! Wake up and please never hurt yourself thinking it would stop the pain
No one can stop it, but yourself alone
Life is like climbing the tallest and strangest mountain
You'll be in a lot of danger and it's not something you can postpone.
When you think you have to stop and you can't stand anymore
Remember your reasons to stand and keep holding on
Because just like waves washing the sands on the shore
Someday, these obstacles you're facing will vanish into oblivion.
