Just To Live

There are many dreams alive in a world that we don’t see.
There are many tears cried in a world that we can’t set free.

There are many songs sang in the face of evil winds.
There are many promises solemnly bound that can’t perish when the sunlight dims.

There are many good souls living under the stars we see. 
There is goodness where there is bad and badness where goodness lives.

There is darkness in our hearts and evil in our minds exists.
There is light that turns to dark on narrow paths that we must walk on just to live.
