Your Worth Is High

YOUR WORTH IS HIGH
Your worth is high 
But you know not nigh
B'cause you never looked high
Enough to see why.
In your heart I can see 
The seed of hope, love, and passion die 
Slowly ebbing away like the flames of a dying fire
Where once you roared like a lion
Now you are a cat, cold whimpering and wet
*************************************
In your eyes I can see
That great pure love turn black
the peace turn to turmoil
The joy turning to anger 
The once warm depth in your eyes 
Are now stone cold
But remember
Your worth is high
Don’t deny
************************************
The sun may not shine like before
Like the fire happiness may not crackle in your depth 
You may not be able to bring a happy memory to today 
But remember your worth is high, DON’T DENY
