"Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't, I give myself reasons why I can. Go for it and don't look back, go for things with your whole heart."


Faking a smile everyday
She tries to be happy
Trying to escape judgemental glares
She's not succeeding
Pulling herself up off the ground
She tries not to look around
But she can't get away
So she walks alone each day

Listen to the cries
Open up your eyes
Speak
We are the answer
Speak
We are the hope for those
Speak
We are the truth
Speak for me

Trying to escape the chains
Of every lik she's forged
Can't get away from the hopelessness
She's tried to ignore
She starts to cry with the gun in hand
Shge can't believe
This is the end

Listen to the cries
Open up your eyes
Speak
We are the answer
Speak
We are the hope for those
Speak
We are the truth
Speak for me

Speak for me
Speak for me

I want people to see that there is problems going on in the world. That people are alone and hurting, but we can help them. just by opening our mouths and saying "hi."
