You'Re Worth More Than

You're worth more than All the pounds And carats of gold. You're worth more than All the riches The world could ever hold. You're worth more than What they make you believe. You're worth more than Anything so please don't grieve. If you were gone The world would be shaken. A much worse dimension So much more forsaken. If you were gone So many eyes Would be clouded and lost. And if you were gone We'd lose what we treasure most. If you were gone The world would go astray. All joy, all smiles, all laughter, Would be gone in a day. If you were gone, You'd waste your only life. So I beg you, please, Don't pick up that knife.
