Yeah lets twist this whole world around
Now it’s not about falling
It’s about picking yourself up
And throwing yourself at everything
Nothing brings no one down
And you can forever wear your crown
No one can take anything away
This is happiness
This is living at it’s best
Following nothing and no one
Relying only on yourself
Dependencies lifted from you
You rise as if weightless
Higher than the clouds
Higher than the sky
Drift from one day to the next
Oblivious to the rest
Everyone living the same
Equality of pain but smiles the same
No one has more than anyone else
No one need take from what’s not their own
Because we all have what we need
We all have our own home
Space to occupy yourself
And no one is in bad health
Love isn’t needed when you love yourself
But it’s gained from trust and appreciation
Getting to know people takes time
But you can tell one thing for sure
Before you even open the door
No one is bad
No one is wrong
There’s just differences in opinion
Differences in the ways we were brought up
Your threshold of pain is only as big as you’ve learnt to cope with
But if we all have the same
Then we will understand each other’s pain
Life isn’t hard
There will only be dark
When you choose to fall to the other side
But don’t worry
There’s always a place to hide
Just go inside
Of yourself.
