Turn


He told me life was like a rubix cube
and he doesen't know why i feel sad..
but we both know my family would not be happy
if they knew I'd been this bad

He said I didin't have to fake my smile now
because everything would be alright
So i put my tears in my pocket
and I dried my eyes that night

He told me I was going to the place
he told me never to go
I told him I had to learn on my own;
because if I didin't make my mistakes...
then how would I ever even know?

I bit my tongue at that time
because I knew he was always right
and then he said that every turn is different
but I would never know that if I didint try

and then before he left he said
'you've only got one shot in life'...
