I lost balance
righting a wrong
fell on my face
standing strong
tore my cape
trying to fly
I said hello
as you said goodbye
swept away
by winds of change
watching priorities
re-arrange
My mama taught me to love others
In hope that others would love me.
But one thing she forgot to teach
Was that love isn't always meant to be.
My father taught me to be strong,
Strong as an iron fist.
But he never taught me strength doesn't last for long,
How to deal with fear when it is taken by the mist.
My teachers taught me to be smart
To try and understand the mysteries of life.
But they never taught me how to deal with fear,
How to turn and run faster than a thrown knife.
My friends taught me to smile
How to laugh and play and be free.
But they never taught me how to fight off the darkness,
How to conquer and kill the Killer of Glee.
