Simplify

Why is everything so complicated
When life can be so simple and easy
There is not one thing to be hated
You just have to live freely

Why do you have to care so much
About what others might think about you
You don't need to impress anyone
Be carefree, be reckless, be you

Life is a game, you just have to play
Why spend all your time planning your moves
Sometimes you need to take a risk
And not the one that others approve

Life is a path, you just need to walk
It is a maze where you won't get lost
So don't check if anyone follows you
And avoid following anyone else too

Life is a river
You just go with the flow
You can stop once in a while
To admire nature, nothing more

Life is short
You don't have time to hate
Stop thinking so much
Just un-complicate

I Am What You Made Me

Since I have been a bundle of blankets
I've been constantly learning your rules
I've been told to abide by them 
That's all they told me at home and in schools

Why are my own opinions ridiculed 
When yours are just as outrageous 
You've stuffed your ways into my mind
And what you're doing is dangerous 

Because I am what you made me
And you made me a coward 
I'm afraid to speak what I think 
How am I supposed to move forward 

I am indeed what you made me
And you took away my confidence
I'm no longer comfortable in my own body
You made me lose my essence 

You need to change your rusty old traditions
They're not going to work anymore
You need to change yourself 
And you need to start right at the core 

Oh, I am what you made me
And you made me an outcast
One day I'll make you pay
And I'm going to make it last

Are You Afraid Of The Dark?

I'm looking at the pitch black sky outside
And I realize that I'm afraid of the dark
I turn on all the lights inside
But there's still fear in my heart

I'm trying to keep myself busy
But it's starting to rain very hard
The lights make scary shadows
And I realize I'm afraid of the dark

But then I look around
You're standing there, smiling
You're not bothered by the thundering sounds
Aren't you afraid of the dark?

I find your smile reassuring somehow
I'm walking towards you
I can feel you holding my hands now
I'm asking you to hug me too

You say there's no need to be afraid
Soon light will succeed the dark
You tell me you'll hold my hand all night
If it will calm my heart

But will you stay beside me
Till the sun shines in my room?
I'm still afraid of the dark you see
But I'm no longer afraid of you...

Believe

People say there are doors
That open to the way to your destination
People say you just have to find the key
And you'll reach your salvation

They believe in Destiny.


People say you're busy looking for the key
But the door has always been open
People say you just have to walk through
You dreams don't have to be broken

They believe in Opportunity.


But I see no doors
I don't want to find the key
All I see is a path
And it is welcoming me

It seems to be full of dangers
Some good and some bad strangers
However, I know there is no way out
And I know that I can cross this path

I believe in Me.

Wake Me Up When Everything's Okay

When the night is too dark
And it's a long time before dawn
When the problems are too hard
When the suffering goes on and on

I wish I could close my eyes
And forget the world for a while
Let my mind rest for a bit
Give myself a chance to smile

And when I wake up again
The sun will be shining bright
It'll be a brand new day
With brand new opportunities in sight

And I'll sleep for a million years
If that's what it takes for the scars to fade away
I'll wake up when I'm ready
When I'm strong enough to get my way

Just let me rest my mind 
And wake me up when everything's okay

Read My Mind

Sometimes it is difficult to explain
When you ask me if I'm fine
Sometime's I can't tell you
What I feel in one line

Wouldn't it be great
If we could read minds?
Everything would be easier
We could save a lot of time

There would be no secrets
There would be no lies
You could see right through me
See my thoughts in my eyes

You would always know
When I'm feeling lost
And I would always know
What you desire most

It would really be great
If we could read minds
I could read yours
And you could read mine.

Annihilation

It's midnight
The clock has struck 12 times
Tonight is not going to be the same
Tonight I'm opening my eyes

When I can hear noises beyond
I won't sleep peacefully in bed
I won't be ignoring anything
I'm going to investigate
___________________________

I'm outside now
Walking this empty street
My throat is dry
I'm sweating from the heat

I arrive at the end of the road
There's a raging fire
It's shouting at me now
It's calling me a liar

It is now spreading around
At the speed of light
Its burning away everything
absolutely everything in sight

The world is annihilating
In front of me
The world is crumbling
And I can see

The end is near
Soon everything will be gone
I can do nothing
You will be left alone.

Let It Shine

When someone breaks a promise
That you've been relying on
When someone keeps you hanging
When you've been waiting for so long

When someone just doesn't care
About you or anyone else
All the hatred lies bare
The situation is making you tense

Nothing you say will change it
Nothing you do will help
All you can do is face it
Or run away if you can't

You just have to remember
It is just a tough time
It will not last forever
You let your smile shine

Sing To Me

I never wanted a new cell phone
I never asked for a new car
Why bother when the love is gone
Don't think that you've done your part

You think expensive is good
Believe me you can't be more wrong
You have never cared enough
And now you wonder why the nights are long


I don't need your gifts
If they don't come from within
Just don't treat me like this
I'm one of you, one of your kin

I wish only to see your face
If you can take out the time
Please don't leave in a haste
Let me see love in your eyes

Won't you at least hear this plea?
Tuck me in bed and sing to me...

Cry No More

The world has been going on
For millions of years
The earth has been absorbing
Gallons of tears

Don't you know my dear
The world will never stop
You fight your own fears
Or you give up and drop out

No one will pause to help you
You fight and then you move on
Breaking down would never work
All you need to do is stay strong

It may seem a little hard to do
But there's no reason to be blue
All is going to be like it was before
Just wipe your tears and cry no more.
