Defense

Soo
You sit and think
About all the games you'd play as a child
Try to look ahead
But then
You realize right now
Your heart is breaking
And somethings just don't
Always..seem to fit
Into this crazy thing they call a beautiful life
How come
You fight and defend
To later learn, life is pain
You might eventually get your chance to run
Right now
You need someone...to explain why
These things happen
Why
No one is able to stick around
Why
You can't handle yourself
Try to look into a future
Get hope
But you're so blind to the upside
You feel so empty
Like there's nothing to fight for
After losing it all
Again and again
The light is fading in your eyes
Turning cold
Even on the outside
Don't they understand?
Can't someone see what's happening to you?
You're dying inside
And still you strive
To understand
Work hard to live
Defend what matters to you
Dreams
Become oh so real
All you know to do
Is run and fight
Quite the contradiction
So do what you can, child
Find what you were born to do
Freedom
Intuition
Compassion
Determination
Or shoudl you just quit?
Let your fire die?
