Bright

I've decided to no longer live through this light There is way too much darkness, nothing's bright Just a silly girl thinking it'd be easier to move on with a smile on her face while you were gone I'm so tired of watching these seasons change so tired of never being able to feel the same Did you ever think it would be too much to admit that it was wrong to promise something you never did I walk down my hall, and turn to the left I stood there staring at the bed where you slept Thinking that wondering about you would help Thinking, what if I fell in love with someone else Then that would make this journey a breeze Sadness is nothing you ask with please I turn around and follow the beautiful light Where there is no darkness, where everything is Bright.
