&quot;The only true love I ever knew<br /> Was behind those downcast eyes<br /> The only comfort I ever felt<br /> Was during those long hours of loneliness<br /> When I felt for you<br /> I do believe<br /> Only innocence can save the world...&quot; -Ocean Soul

Holding on
To a life that you feel
Is not worth living
Take a look
The stormclouds do end
The sun will rise again

Take a hand
When life seems hopeless
And you want the end
Call the name of your angel
When you feel so helpless

Make a wish
For everything to get better
Life will be there
When you wake up in the morn
It will get better
Everything will be okay

I stand here today and hold your name high

Take a hand
Give hope to the hopeless
Love the loveless and save a life
Hold onto dreams
Dream for a better tomorrow
And never stop fighting

For the hope that life will always get better, this is for those who are depressed and in need of an angel to save them.

&quot;I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There&#039;s no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it. &quot;
