All of Me
Do you ever wonder why, the world can be so cruel?
That it kicks you most, when you're already beaten down.
Why it picks the days to rain on those that you need the sun the most.
Do you ever wonder why, we treat each other with such hatred?
With words that cut the soul deep, things that can never be taken back.
Why we shout and scream, no matter how futile the cause.
Do you ever wonder why, the times you need most to cry, you can't?
The days that pass the world by lay long and endless, like the neverending winter.
Why its either that the world just doesn't seem to understand you, when maybe, it's really that you don't understand it.
Do you ever wonder why, we live our lives like roller coaster rides?
With weeks upon weeks that lay dull and then those filled with drama.
Why we don't just pick the happy medium that would make our lives so much easier.
Do you ever wonder why, words can seem so distant, even when they're supposed to be filled with love?
Filled with passion, the type that makes the world spin.
Why the things that you want to believe and trust most, are also the hardest, most confusing ones.
Do you ever wonder why, there can be times where you're surrounded with people, and still feel all alone?
Alone in a crowd, not one to stand out.
Why the world always seems so uncaring, and everything so confusing.
Do you ever wonder why, you can hear the sounds of mocking laughter at night?
The nights when the thunder echos in the distance, and the tv plays in the room next to yours.
Why you can lay in bed and feel the isolation that surrounds you, only for being you.
Do you ever wonder why, depression claims so many, why sadness seems to mask all joy?
Each day filled with more tears, the nights numb and bare.
Why the news is filled with more suicides and runaways than of celebrations.
Do you ever wonder why, the point that you are trying to make just can't come out?
Even if no one is listening, you can't say the things you want most to say, for fear of your own thoughts.
Why darkness slowly encloses us all, leaving each and every person prey to their own hell.
