As hard as it is starting over
Just be grateful you are aware
The opposite used to be true
You never knew why you were blue
Or even that you were
Death hates life
But yet, can’t live without it
He is the one who is dependent
Not you, the seed, the egg, the abundant
Soon, he’ll be trapped forever
You carry a burden
Fighting it all along the way
You refuse to trust in life
Every step, remembering every strife
A chip on your shoulder
You always know
The better way, don’t you
That’s why you’ll soon be erased
A strange conundrum leaves a trace
Always out of sync
If you didn’t want it
You would have it
But you do want it, so you won’t
Never yielding, always pressing is your wont
It’s the one thing you have yet to learn
Perhaps there is no other way
Of being, the situation didn’t leave room
For too many other reactions
Though ample opportunity for retractions
But still things remained the same
Unfortunately, with death
It’s the pattern
There is not another way around
Pain & negativity abounds
Please, be happy anyway
I know that for you
That’s way too tall of an order
As much as you may not want to admit it
There’s an advantage to starting over
But, there’s no convincing you
The triggers to the traumas are too close
When distance is present, you heal
But I know that doesn’t matter to you
And that makes me a little blue
That’s your choice; there’s nothing I can do
You always know better
And that’s the way it is… I accept it
This is the way that we chose it
The past has been written, you must face it
Look forward and be at peace within it
Just be happy regardless
Be happy anyway
Be happy anyway
Love your life anyway
Love life anyway
