The Orchestra

by Emma Garcia   Feb 21, 2005


FRIENDSHIP,
IS LIKE AN ORCHESTRA

THE VIOLINS,
ARE THE COMMON BONDS THE FRIENDS HAVE HAVE WITH EACH OTHER,
THEY ARE THE MELODY,
THE THING EVERYONE IN THE AUDIENCE TURNS TOWARD TO LOOK AT A LISTEN TO

THE VIOLAS,
ARE THE PURITY EACH FRIEND HAS IN THEIR HEART,
EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE ALSO APART OF THE MELODY,
THEY ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAT THE VIOLINS,
THEY ARE THE STAR OF THE SHOW

THE CELLOS,
ARE THE DEVOTION THE TWO FRIENDS HAVE TO ONE ANOTHER,
ALTHOUGH THEY ARE PLAYING SILENTLY IN THE BACKGROUND,
THEY ARE NEEDED VERY MUCH,
THEY ARE VERY STRONG, VERY THICK THREAD,
THEY HOLD THE WHOLE ORCHESTRA TOGETHER

THE BASSES,
ARE THE BIGGEST OF ALL THE INSTRUMENTS,
THEY HAVE THE REST OF THE ORCHESTRA BACKS,
JUST AS TWO FRIENDS WOULD,
THEY ARE THERE TO COVER UP THE MISTAKES,
ALL THE MISTAKES THAT THE REST OF THE ORCHESTRA MAY MAKE

WITHOUT JUST ONE OF THESE INSTRUMENTS,
THERE WOULD BE NO ORCHESTRA
WITHOUT ONE OF THESE QUALITIES,
THERE WOULD BE NO FRIENDSHIP

WHEN YOUR ORCHESTRA IS COMPLETE,
YOU DEVOTE YOU LIFE TO KEEPING EVERY ONE OF THESE INSTRUMENTS,
EVERY ONE OF THESE QUALITIES,
JUST AS THE CELLOS WOULD

YOU WORK TO MAKE MORE BONDS,
SO THEN YOU VIOLINS WILL LEARN TO BE BETTER PLAYERS

YOU WORK ON THE PURITY OF YOU HEART,
SO THAT, IN TIME YOU WONT LOSE, NOT ONE, OF YOU VIOLAS

YOU WORK HARD TO COVER UP ALL YOUR FRIENDS MISTAKES
SO THAT EVERY TIME YOU DO, YOU RECEIVE ONE MORE BASS

BUT NEVER EVER FORGET THAT WITHOUT ONE OF THESE INSTRUMENTS
WITHOUT ONE OF THESE QUALITIES
YOU
ARE
NOWHERE
