Bend Not Break

by †JustAri†   Jun 9, 2005


It's the end of the times
That we've learned to say goodbye
When all is said and done
We really need no one

The end of it all is here
Cuz nothing feels right here
The pieces don't fit
Why we've had to go through this ****

When we were young, we were safe
Now we've pushed our innocence away
When you can hold the empty spaces in your hands
You know the lonliness is thick, and it becomes your friend

It was all that we had after all we had lost
It didn't matter, nothing mattered
No one thought of the cost
We tried so hard that we went without rest
And we're paid back with regret in our chest

Suddenly everyone became desperate
Friends for life became separate
People who suffered
Were killing each other

Nobody knew just what the problem was
All they knew was that they'd had enough
We figured nobody was going to lie down and take it
Because the ones who did never did make it

Now we're all around
And lonlieness isn't found
We've finally realized
These are not our lives

See we've all changed
And new lives are being made
Speak up for the ones who died unspoken
Remember how we bended, but never have broken
