Cherish

make a passage in that book
but this time write it for the joy of living
give up your pain and hate
write of love not just of surviving
You look so blissful
But are the smiles faked?
You feel disdainful
please come, please wake

take that grin and write it down
remember these words forever
I'll wipe away the tears and drown
all the sorrow that seems to sever

I want you to find a haven
A place where you can rest your mind
submerge the pain you've taken
and leave it all in the past behind
locked doors of security
You're more than deserving of an eternity
that does not burn with every faint touch
I just want you to know you've suffered enough

take that grin and write it down
remember these words forever
I'll wipe away the tears and drown
all the sorrow that seems to sever

Break the shell and restore the grand design
the soul that you were missing at birth
Open your wings though they sear with broken feathers
fly again, you're no longer bound to this earth
I believe that you can lift yourself
defy gravity, its not as strong as it seems
So don't you dare give in to this world
even when broken dreams are still dreams

take that grin and write it down
remember these words forever
I'll wipe away the tears and drown
all the sorrow that seems to sever
