Mr Brightside
Suddenly the tunnel has gone from around me,
the light at the end is light that surrounds me,
there’s sounds and life,
green blue and gold shines bright,
dreams too, there’s chance, it’s nice.
I crawled that tunnel for 13 years,
living fear and tasting tears
the end feeling never near,
isolated with hate inside,
I survived a suicide,
all in my life believed I lied,
stripped of worth stripped of pride,
nothing but myself in life,
and now I’ve reached the other side,
and can prove I did not lie,
there’s more than light in my eyes,
there’s dreams ambition and aims in mind,
I now sit new and fresh to begin,
the lesson of life is never give in
