Keep the Faith

Do you ever feel like,
All those things, long cherished,
Fail to make you smile anymore?
And every time you feel helpless, you,
End up knocking on the same door?

Like every time the door opens,
It’s doomed to close upon you.
And everything’s a nightmare,
Nothing’s real, nothing’s true!

Like every time you try to solve the puzzle,
It complicates, making your vision blur.
And every piece you try to fit in,
Fails to create the entire picture.

Like walking into a tunnel, 
Never-ending, with all your might,
You walk faster, even try to run,
But always fail to reach the light.

Like diving deep into the blackness,
Into the depths of a sea, bottomless.
Getting deprived of air, trying harder,
And yet failing to reach the surface.

Like life’s become a hopeless dream,
A sinking, unsolved mystery.
Wish you could just open your eyes,
Wish you could set yourself free.

Wish you could free yourself from,
This suffocating thought-paralysis.
Wish you could save yourself,
From falling into an eternal abyss.

One last time, stand up again,
Don’t lose hope, forget all the pain.
I assure you, you’ll find a way,
None of your efforts’ll go in vain.

The one who hopes, defeats the dead-end.
The one who dares, always wins in the end.
You’ll find your way, you’ll reach the light.
Just keep the faith, and fight your fight.
After the darkest hour, you always see the light.
Just keep the spirit alive, and you’ll shine bright!
