Those days come for all of us
You know those days?
When you feel everyone's against you
Its not an easy task
To keep moving when the sun goes down

When those days come around
Do you draw into a shell?
Do you put on a mask?
Or do you lash out in anger?
and hurt those that care

This is what i ask of you.
Before you close everyone out,
Or hurt those that love
Look for that one person
That one person that makes you smile.

Its hard to help people that wont let you help and i'm hoping this peace will let people that have these days know that they need to find someone who can help them.
