Favorite Quote:
&quot;Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind dont matter and those who matter dont mind.&quot; -Dr. Seuss<br /> &quot;If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you, its yours forever. If it doesnt, it was never yours in the first place.&quot;


So-

There's tears on the floor,
There's a hole in my heart,
'Cause the door that leads to it
Has been ripped apart.
Yeah I know the saying:
"If your heart was really breaking,
You'd be dead,
So why go 'head and speak it?"
And 'Ima just throw it out there,
This is true
But I'm not first to die
From a heart split in two.
So I'd prefer if you wouldn't
Look my way
And I'd appreciate it if you'd
Move on with your day
Don't look at the girl
With a Band-Aid on her chest
'Cause you and I both know
That she needs to rest.
She needs to forget
All the pitiful stares
She needs to keep lookin'
For the person who cares...

[chorus:]
Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as-
Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as-
Darling, close your eyes,
Close your eyes for awhile,
Picture a moment
That once made you smile
Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as the end.

She takes a train
For as far as it goes
But the place where it stops,
She doesn't know.
Though at this time
She doesn't give a damn
And she starts running
As fast as she can.
Everything around her
Passes in a blur
How fast is she running?
She's not sure.
But she keeps rhythm
To a song in her head
And she gives in
Like a rose that's dead.

Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as-
Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as-
Darling, close your eyes,
Close your eyes for awhile,
Picture a moment
That once made you smile
Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as the end.

This girl that's been running
All through town
Has given up
'Cause she's always let down.
But the angels in
The skies above
Tell her to stand
And dust herself off,
They tell her that
The people with the ropes
Drag her down with the others
That have no hope
But she's the one
With a spark inside her
And the spark's just waiting
To light up and set fire.
And all she needs
Is a little push
She needs to be told
That she's good enough.

Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as-
Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as-
Darling, close your eyes,
Close your eyes for awhile,
Picture a moment
That once made you smile
Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as the end.

And maybe my heart's been ripped to shreds
And maybe it's been shattered
But I've realized that the people that did it
Don't even really matter.

Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as-
Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as-
Darling, my love,
Don't think of this as the end.
Don't think of this as the end.


The author's comments:
A lot has happened recently in my life, and one night I started writing a few things down. It turned into a poem, and the poem turned into this song. The song talks about how much life can SUCK, but it always turns out good in the end.
