		<description>I don&#039;t want to be alone
but here I am
I don&#039;t want to be sad
but there I go
I don&#039;t want to live here
but here I stand
falling free
falling free
into something brand new
I am happy for this moment
and that&#039;s enough</description>

		<description>I guess I&#039;ve never been a tough person
but I have to ask myself
when people say &quot;don&#039;t be so sensitive! take it easy&quot;
what is tougher?
being entirely open to the world?
or being a tough guy
does being tough mean not feeling?
or does true grit
have a heart and a mind that doesn&#039;t
shield itself
at all
on the other hand
its not skillful to be dead or crazy
so maybe being a bleeding heart
isn&#039;t a great plan
who knows</description>

		<description>I&#039;d say it crystal clear
without malice
I am a good person
I don&#039;t deserve to be hated or hurt
I never intentionally deceived
I don&#039;t calculate
I&#039;ve suffered horribly
for people who i don&#039;t even know
and then been projected on by them
they see their own anger in me
and it hurts me
and when I thought I couldn&#039;t go on
I received help
and I&#039;m thankful
but I&#039;m not a bad person
and I&#039;ve done some things wrong
but out of fear
so how do I move on?
I&#039;m going to forget everything
and cherish the life I have
because I owe it to some
to keep moving forward
straight forward</description>

		<description>if I could just say
thank you and I&#039;m sorry
and just leave it at that
then maybe explanations
don&#039;t really matter
how hard it is to say
please help!
so much easier to hide 
in another&#039;s assumptions
to play the fool
or the crazy person
well 
I&#039;m ready to forgive everyone
and atone
at this moment
with my whole heart
can&#039;t we all be on the same team?
I&#039;m willing
but I know that being honest is the most important thing
so much trouble in my life could&#039;ve been avoided
ah well
I&#039;m here now
asking and giving forgiveness
and saying thank you
and I love you
and I trust</description>
