The Old Days, But Everything Is Fine Now (Part II)

I stared at moon, smiling as the clear navy blue sky, and the rain slowly fell

Like tears, crying for the past, mourning for the present, and wishing for the future

Yeah, I miss you,

But it's okay, in the end,

Sometimes we just have to grow up and suck it up.

Sometimes you think you can't be strong, but you can, especially when it's the only thing you have left to be.

Sometimes you think you don't have the ability to hate, until it's the only thing you feel towards everyone.

And sometimes, when you're in the hole of loneliness an darkness you think you can't smile, or laugh, or be happy again, until you are.

Everything passes, it just takes time and patience.

Everything changes, everything moves.

Every tear you shed is replaced by smiles.

Everything changes, everything shifts.

Don't get too comfortable, it's all gonna end.

The important thing is that you overcome it, and you overtake it

You don't have to be what everyone else wants you to be,

There's way more to life than doing what they all want you to do,

If that slipper don't fit, well, don't wear it at all,

Why tip-toe on glass, when your bare feet in the grass feel so damn good

Reach up and try to catch a shooting star, hold on to it, and don't ever let it go

Lock your fears somewhere where they never get out,

Don't let nobody knock you down, and, girl, you know why?

Because today is when theres no fears, nothing holding you down,

This is your happily ever after

We all have to grow up,

We all have to be strong

We all go through our share of pain and grief, but in the end, it's all worth it.

I thought, as I stood up and I smiled, up at the moon.

I'm fine alone, I'm fine with no one, I think I'm doing all right.
