As i stand up tall
looking down at all
standing high
with my head in the sky
the chill of cold
just as the weather man told
forgetting everything left behind
afraid for what i might find
as I'm standing here
showing nothing but fear
save me from what I've become
cause you shine brighter than any sun

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing..

Don&#039;t let anybody tell you who you are; don&#039;t let anyone tell you that you don&#039;t deserve what you&#039;re willing to work for. <br /> Never give up; you\&#039;ll never know how far you could go until you try to get to where you want to go.

I like this one. um... another thing to notice though? You talk about fear and other emotions....go into detail. If you don't rhyme necessarily, you'll be able to express and describe the pain you feel with more description. Try that and see how it works :) i like it though!
