Don't judge as often as admire
Hiding only creates another enemy, yourself
Bless people if not out loud then in your mind
Life is too short to live it incorrectly.
Most don't get it until the very end
But that's too late to fix what is broken
They only get it part way fixed before they've gone
Why waste away your days in constant pettiness?
What does that accomplish but hurting you?
It's so easy to just do for yourself, & forget those around you
The matter of the fact is that humans are human.
I'm human, you're human, he's human, she's human.
Society feeds our greed & brainlessness
All we see is perfection & seamlessness,
Never noticing how artificial & upsetting it all is.
Time, for those people, drags on & on,
Eye's never leaving the clock, begging the minutes to fly
Masks, how beautiful yet tragic they are.
Blocking out all originality by disguising who you are
Do you wear one to hide all the disappointment on that face?
Is this what we've come to, wasting away behind all these doors?
Open mine, go ahead, if you can.
Here I am, lecturing you when my door is like another part of the wall
Sealed & barricaded, to hide my secrets
All I can do is try, just like you, just like them.
Trying to learn from everyone's mistakes,
To admire & bless all we meet.
Who knows how to live "correctly"?
Best we can do is try, only try.
Try to make people's days, to make them smile, simply to try.
I will if you will
