Gotta Give
What are we to do if no one's gonna give?

Avg Rating: (1)
Something's gotta give,
From the world we live,
The pain has to end soon
Or the war will balloon.
Someone must stop
The tears of this monsoon.

Something's gotta give
If people are still gonna believe
We must be allowed to live
If we can truly see,
Why pay for things we didn't do?
I know you know but I'm still gonna tell you,
Why bother restrain us,
If you don't know how to contain us?

How can we remain
If we can't even stay sane?
Why try if we're going to break down
And cry anyways?
How do you know that we're here to stay
That love is forever,
That evil=Lucifer
That the looking glass will break
And darkness shall fall around us
Like a spell
Who can say?
Who can tell?

'They' say it's God,
But shouldn't 'I' as well?
