What Will It Take
We often don't realize the pain that we cause,
When we don't recognize our own bitter flaws,
Only out to please ourselves,
We put so many loved ones through hell,
Nothing in life we appreciate,
Failing to see the mistakes that we make,
Putting our love and future at stake,
Slowly killing ourselves, we don't hesitate,
To put our hearts out there for someone to break,
When will we stop dreaming and finally wake,
Tell me friend, what will it take?
