Believe

Another one in quick succession.

-----

What a bad way to begin
A fight with my best friend
My phone’s giving up on me
And my life is going down the drain

A bad start to the week
One thing after another
Wasn’t it only yesterday
That you could hear the echo of my laughter

Things got from good to great
Great to bad
Bad to worse
In just a matter of minutes

I went from up to down
Down to a frown
All alone now
With only lonliness

But i won’t give up the fight
I won’t lose hope
I won’t let you defeat me
Not when i’m this close
I won’t go down
As long as i breathe
I will be strong
I’ll still believe

I look at the bright side
It can’t get any worse
Something to look forward to
After all the pain and the disaster

Things got from good to great
Great to bad
Bad to worse
In just a matter of minutes

I went from up to down
Down to a frown
All alone now
With only lonliness

But i won’t give up the fight
I won’t lose hope
I won’t let you defeat me
Not when i’m this close
I won’t go down
As long as i breathe
I will be strong
I will be strong
I’ll still believe

I went from up to down
Down to a frown
All alone now
With only lonliness

But i won’t give up the fight
I won’t lose hope
I won’t let you defeat me
Not when i’m this close
I won’t go down
As long as i breathe
I will be strong
I will be strong
I will be strong
I will be strong
And I’ll still believe

  2. Haha... it all depends on my mood! I seem to be doing one a day easily this month... occasionally two. But I make it a point not to do more!
