We're All HUman

Although my light may fade away
As time grows old my work will stay
The words I've written mean to you
Much more than something spoken true.

So I have something I'd like say
Something needed for today
I need to tell you, you are you
And nothing else but human, too.

And all your peers and family
Are human, too, as much as me
And all your crushes, friends and foes
All eat and die and live and grow.

So while you're thinking of yourself
Remember we are nothing else
But something with a dying heart
Unless we somehow light the dark.

Faith is like learning to walk; you have to fall at first, but don't stay down. When in doubt, don't stop believing.

That's really pretty and true, no one seems to think that anymore though.  I <3 it.

P.S can you please check out my song "Trapped In the Dark With Your Words" and tell me what you think?
