On the Darkest Night

There are people in life that will try to bring you down

Misery wants company Because they're sad they want to see you frown

They don't want to see you with any happy days They try everything in there power 
to stand in glory's way

They're so angry at the world so they take it out on you They run from the problem 
Left without a clue They keep living there life But they're really not living They are 
stuck without happiness Anger driven

Those people can be who you would swear they're not They could be your 
bestfriend Not anymore they filled an enemies spot Those people can be your 
own mother maybe your father too Wait a minute look in the mirror that person 
could be you 

That person could be big or maybe two feet tall Maybe they're beautiful or maybe 
there face resembles a brick wall Maybe they still smile in your face every single 
day of your life or maybe they frown upon you letting it be known without thinking 
twice

Whoever they are whoever must they be 

Let them get out of your way

Let yourself be free

The world is full of roses and a sky so blue and bright But it's up to you to see it 
Even on the darkness night
