Life Goes On


When you stand alone

In the place you call home

Cutting humanity off

Hating those who you've lost

 

Rmember for me

What you could be

If you forget your past

And let your love last.

 

Maybe you will see

The whole forest for its trees

Maybe you will feel

The beating of the worlds heart

The only one you couldn't steal.

 

And then you'll truly know

What it's like to be at home.

What it's like to be at peace

When you let your anger cease.
