Life's To Short To Hold a Grudge

Every time that I come to see you 
You constantly make up a story or two
There's always going to be some reason why
You can never truly look me into the eye
Tell me what this grudge is all about
When I try to talk you do nothing but shout
I try to get you to see things my way
But It's either your way or the highway
Maybe someday soon you will realize
That your life is slowly passing you bye
With everything seeming to hold you down
There was a time in your life that smile turned into a frown
As I sit here and try to say
You just have to try and get past all the bad days
Or you'll never find your smile again
Just saying this as a friend
So please let me lend you my hand
We could wash your problems away like the ocean and the sand
Your getting to old to be grouchy and bitter
There's so many things you need to reconsider
Nothing is ever really what it will seem
Get up put a smile on and boost your self esteem
You only have so many days on this earth
Time to show everyone what you're worth
