The Concrete Flower

Why fight
(In a wold that’s given up, if hope is really lost, why show the love I was
denied?)
Why fight
(If hate rules everything, if nothing is worth save, then what’s the point?)
Why fight the way I feel inside?
Please don’t make me a liar
Why should it even matter?
I’m so bitter and so tired
So tired of smiling through this pain, with no end in sight
Who knew having a heart could be a curse?
And that trying to help only makes things worse?
I try to smile but my eyes scream hate
And loving anything will only end in pain
How can I love when I never let anyone inside
Burned one too many times
I’m no defeatist but lets call it what it is
A world damned, a world that’s given up
No signs of hope and no signs of love
In a world so full of hate, how could anyone rise above
Why fight the way I feel inside
Please don’t make me a liar
Why should it even matter
I’m so bitter and so tired
So tired of smiling through this pain, with no end in sight
Tonight could change my life
In a world so full of hate how can anyone rise above
In a world so full of hate how can I feel anything but lost
In the land of the lost
In the land of broken promises
The land of lies and lust
I found a truth in my pain
And the strength to start again
Tonight should change my life
Why fight the way I feel inside
Please don’t make me a liar
Why should it even matter
I’m so bitter and so tired
So tired of smiling through this pain, with no end in sight
In a world so full of hate how can anyone rise above
In a world so full of hate how can anyone rise above
In a world that chooses hate, I choose love
I CHOOSE LOVE
