Touch the Sky

Touch the sky.
Before the night begins to die.
Earth moves beneath your feet.
Forget the pain, the deceit.

You're loved, can't you see?
You're adored by so many.
Why when I look into your face? I don't see glee.
I see your pain and misery.

Your spirit is perfect in every way.
Please don't let your fear,
Take the place of what your fans say.
Forget the negative things you hear.

Take the things you think are beautiful.
Make them hopeful.

Touch the sky.
Do you see now?
That your soul can never die.
