Hello me
Hello new day
New life
This is it
Bring it on
Hello trouble
Hello challenges
Try so hard
Go so far
SHow it all
Be it all
Hello moon
Hello sun
Shine so bright
Be so strong
With every burst
Of energy
Hello dear
Hello love
Be so kind
And so strong
Alway with you
No matter what
Hello you
Hello me
she says
Hello
I reply
I'm new
She says
I see
I reply
I'm French
and spanish
and chinese
she says
now
she greets me with:
Bonjour!
Hola!
Ni Hao!
and
Hi!
Hello, friend ghost,
tell me the story,
you cherish the most.
I'll tell you the story,
of the haunted house,
or i'll tell you the story,
of the headless mouse,
Hello, friend spirit,
hello, friend ghost,
I'll tell you the story,
you cherish the most.
as i greet each new day
goodbye
I wish my demons away
For a greeting can be seen
in many different ways
Yet an ending is alway the same
It always ends in pain.
They avert their eyes and look at their feet
I pass by someone in my school
They ignore me and pretend to act cool
I run into someone in the hall
They bustle by me without even giving out a call
I wave at someone I don't know
They take care not to let their feelings show
I meet up every morning with my friends
They jump straight into conversation, with no greeting to send
No one ever tries
They all refuse to meet my eyes
What is wrong with everyone?
Why do they always turn around and run?
Why can't they just stop
Look at me properly, without letting their gaze drop
I don't understand
Why people can't lend a hand
How come words don't flow?
Is it really that hard just to say hello?
So today, when you come across someone
It doesn't have to be a familiar one
Make sure to greet them with a cheerful 'hi'
And not just rush past with a goodbye
Say hello next time;
Believe me, it's far from a crime.
Tell me everything
Tell it quietly
You don't have to say it loud
Tell me everything
Tell me quietly
Relieve your heart so proud
For once, don't be strong
Don't just carry on
Let your guard down
Show me your nightmare
Show me your frown
You say that I don't care
That I'd see you differently
You're being so unfair
Let me comprehend the mystery
Don't shut it down tight
and ask if /I'm/ alright
Don't say hello and in turning say good-bye
Let me in
And I'll show you
Someone loving true
Let me in
And I'll show you
That I'd be good to you
Let us not dwell on shallow things
Let us not say hello and go
You can tell me everything--
I really care to know
Let your heart show
Let your guard down
Tell me your woes:
I won't chase you outta town
Don't spare me the heartbreak
Tell me what you know
All your secrets I can take
And I'll never let them go
Don't let's say good-bye
Just after we've said hello
yours was pretty amazing too, btw. I was going to comment, but then I was completely inspired for Something in Between and kind of forgot. ><
