Young

When you're young and eager to live your life
Nobody leaves you alone
Quick judgment they pass on what you do
Which keeps you away from your familiar home
No one's there to ask for help
When you struggle along the way
No one sees you signaling
Or listens to what you have to say
You work on your own and keep up your grades
You don't do it for anyone else
You face every obstacle standing alone
You do it for yourself
With every person you encounter
They always seem to let you down
Your family and friends who are supposed to be there
Are nowhere to be found
You never give up on anything
You always do your best to try
It's just so hard when you're by yourself
Surrounded by those who cheat and lie
There's no one there to walk you through
And guide you where you need to go
You're the only one that you can trust
Teach yourself what you have to know
Happiness can wait for another day
There's other things that need your care
Just hide your anger, your hate, your sadness
No one said life was fair
So today you wear your fake smile
Save your tears and your broken heart
Live with what you have and learn from your mistakes
Never go back to the start.
