Beautiful Agony II

IV: Nothing will bring it back... Nothing will bring it back, ever again So must learn to live with or overcome the pain A tough decision the brain will have to make The heart will need to follow for sanity's sake Leave the gloom in an abstract form Charge ahead, break the norm All well thought and said Difficult to follow the path ahead Be it dark, steep, winding or treacherous The storm of fear may seem perilous The right change is what the mind needs Something fruitful for all the good deeds Asking is not what one does anymore Waiting endlessly makes the heart sore Leave the future in destiny's hands But still that something the heart demands V: That something the heart continues to demand... That something the heart continues to demand The brain gets stronger and wants to reprimand Unfortunately for no one can time rewind Best to regain peace and sanity of the mind So focus on the right and not the wrong Not the things that didn't work, didn't belong The moments that brought joy and warmed the heart Snuggling up in the arms was the best part But the good times make the heart yearn for more Conveniently overlooking how badly it tore And even though it keeps beating as it heals It can't stop feeling the way it feels So time is exactly what it will get So the emotions can be rightly set The brain will be wise and support it for now And hope for a better tomorrow somehow VI: A hope for a better tomorrow... A hope for a better tomorrow I try to keep Attempting to lock away the emotions in too deep They're raw, they're real, but I won't let them seep For this moment in time, they only make me weep Thought I was strong, better than this Things were rosy, everything seemed a bliss The prickly thorns creeped up too soon Bursting the bubble, crippling the boon The mind can't help but mindlessly wonder Why it all happened I often ponder Life is such, unfathomable, cryptic and intense More often than not, things just don't make sense The wise would learn and bravely move on The rest would wallow, struggle and moan I don't deny I currently belong to the latter But give me time, will top the former and be better
