They Say...

They Say "Never look back, look toward the future" But what if there is no future to look forward to They Say "Live everyday like it's your last" All my memories, be of the past All those memories should I cast My bible says "Look to the hills from which comes your health" I've been looking so high, my eyes hurt I've lossed my breath Trying to find myself Almost causing my death They Say "Friends are forever" Mine aren't They're the ones bringing me down They Say "Turn the other cheek" Okay,then what? Day in and out They Say "Laugh, it does the body good" I'm very understood My bible says "He shall never put more on me, than I can bear" I can't take it I need help They Say "Smiles are contagious" They hurt And they take work Don't need more distress They Say "Patience is a virtue" But the more you wait the more I get hurt They Say "Perservervance and determined to pay for itself" I'm determined to succeed But everyone else is stopping me I'm in need of something, something more They Say "Success is how far you bounce when you hit bottom" What if I don't stop bouncing but never get anywhere? They Say "Positive people don't put others down" They're the main ones Maybe they're too positive about themselves They say "Numbers are infinitive" Is pain infiniive too Is anger Is lies Is death Is tears Is lost love Everything they say is wrong They also say "Everything happens for a reason" Is pain and heartache supposed to happen I wish death didn't happen Wrong!!! Wrong!!!WRONG!!!!!!!!
