 ~Hope Floats~
~Hope Floats~










*AGM*
Tick tock goes the clock
Days rushing by
Nights drag slowly
So many tears cried
Secretly into the dark

Days of babyhood
Playing with no worry
Unless you are abused
Laughter and fun
Unless you are molested

Tick Tock goes the clock
School days, now at hand
growing tall, some grow proud
Others grow with hate
Lonliness and fear
Their only fate

Teenage years
Filled with tears
Learning of lost love
Heartbreaking, it is
Learning the feel
as your heart breaks

Over and Over again
Until it makes you
cold, calculating
out to find yourself
even if you have to kill

Middle age, is time
to be who you are
the rest of your life
Tick Tock goes the clock
WHO ARE YOU?
WHAT ARE YOU?

The road feels so long
You have seen so many things
Felt the pain in others
it was so strong, heartbreaking
They still cry secretly in the dark
You know

You can't go back
to fix the demons
make them go away

You can move forward
Take those broken hearts
in your hand
Speak softly
Show them you care
A Labor of Love
is yours
If you want it

From your first heartbeat
To the last one
The choices are yours

Hope Floats
to the Heavens
Like a beautiful bubble
All you have to do
Is grab it!
It won't break
It is always there

Tick Tock goes the clock

Hope will help you make it through
Don't ever let it go by you
Without trying
Hope floating is Destiny
