Symbol of Hope
A symbol of hope
When all hope is lost what kind of cliché would work?
When a man tries to take his own life how does he negate his actions in front of his child?
In this world so cruel and so wild there is no structure
Nothing to reassure anyone that the world is a safe place
There is no beacon or light at the end of any dark tunnel
There’s no escape
Only a dark, dark hell
Closing in are the walls year by year
You watch as everyone destined for life passes you by
By and by
Time and time
You reach up
And no one even tries
You shed a tear
they wonder why he cries
Strength builds up over time
Finally able to reach up
Able to seize life
Everything is over
Just want to forget about it all
I used to be destined for nothing
I was designed to fall
To fail
Yet here I am
Victorious I hail
Silver, white luster
Lutetium rare
With no hazy glare
He says
“it takes everything I can muster to show I care”
For the first time ever I feel the good pain
For the first time ever
Music plays
