Go

Sometime life weighs us down
Turns our smiles round to frowns.

Our minds race and our hearts pain,
Our faces soaked with eye dropped rain.
Why suffer when someone leaves our side?
Why is it we want to run and hide?

Take charge of your life and stand tall,
Don't allow someone else to cause you to fall.
Get a grip and show the world today
That you can go and keep hurt at bay.

Take hold of yourself and visit a friend,
Go buy a shirt if you have to spend.
Dance the night and work through your sorrow,
Cause maybe, just maybe there's "A Better Tomorrow".
