Stand Up


How much can words hurt you?

When you don't show any emotion

Tearing running down your soul

Cries knocking at every door

Wishing to be heard........

Smiling to the world

Without having any clue

What to do ANYMORE

It's time to get up from the floor

Wipe your tears from shore to shore

Show the world

How much you can adore

Stand up for YOURSELF

And show the world

that words WONT HURT YOU

ANYMORE!
