Array ( [sid] => 59583 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Lifes Virtue 2 [time] => 2004-08-10 06:37:07 [hometext] => Read it and weep, it does have a message so take it all in. [bodytext] => Can't help those who won't help me
I can try, but I still don't try enough
You didn't see the first time
I don't think you ever will
So take now your fill
This may be the last you will hear
So listen close, my dear

Only those who care
The ones who dare
To take more than what its offering
To share the mind
To be to the world so kind
Maybe to make more than what was planned
To make more of life, on this land

Those around you are what made you
So don't deny what you owe
So give it all you've got too show
Read and weep
You've wasted your youth
It hits hard and deep
Bring it back to what you were
A soul of Gold
Mind of the wisest
A life that couldn't be sold

Now some reduced to nothing
Withered and ruined
Broken and torn
Tortured and worn
Life isn't just for you
But it can be
So listen too me

Look now at yourself
Do you see a proud person??
Do you see honor
Do you see honesty
And above all do you see who you are

I know you can't be happy with who you are
So many mistakes
So many times, so many fakes
The ladder of regrets keeps the climb
This is your problem
The past hurts you
Nothing more
