Never the Same Again
these walls that we have built with our own hands
are slowly crashing to the ground
the foundation so weak as the the power of this quake
buries them into the embers of this december
don't turn your cheek or bat an eyelash
because when you discover life's true meaning
you will understand that this is just another ending
leading to another beginning
an open door that is yours to take
to escape this pain and this hurt
hold yourself up and stand tall again
and find the strength in yourself to fight back
against the ones who deceive you
the liars and the heartbreakers
the backstabbers and the pretenders
just remember to never surrender
to the games that they play
because then they will betray
your trust and then you will find yourself
left in the dust
so rise up my son and stand above
the ones that have hurt you
and put you through this pain
because when you understand that you don't need them
you will never be the same again
