Is this what we've been waiting for?

They’re promise of life getting better?

A day when all the pain would suddenly fade away               
As if that nagging ache could be ignored

Just another lie to hold ourselves together

Like how wounds heal with each passing day—

… Right;

Rather, they merely become sores we learn to tolerate

We may look beaten, broken and bruised

But only through their eyes

If they could only see what beats inside

Well, that time has arrived, 

To see how all the painful pieces fit

As we see all the hurt in the world today 

Through the trauma we've lived 

We know we can handle it

While others are lost or led astray

Now’s our turn to lift them from the fray

They're the ones who need us here

To stand tall and walk without fear 

The reason why we've carried so much grief

Time to show the world the heart we've hid beneath.
