Selective Listening
Listen to your heart and look away from the cynical
Keep looking for a downer
And you will find what lies beneath the pain that birth's your tears
Then it becomes even harder to look up
More like heads up
Ducking in fear
Making it even harder to hold back the ocean wanting to be free from your eyes
Even harder not to just say goodbye
Good enough will no longer get by
You will always find what you think of in your mind
p.s. no need to worry when you decide to just be you...
