Take a look.

Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice

Take a look
At that tree
At every broken memory
At every little groove

Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice

Take a look
At that bird
At every freedom
At every ruffled feather

Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice

Take a look
At that cloud
At every year you're meant to live
At every picture it plays

Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice

Take a look
At your hand
At every vein that life put there
At every finger made for you

Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice

Take a look
At your eyes
At every tear that made you strong
At every lash that was made for you

Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice

Take a look
At your arm
At every scar that blade created
At every broken promise someone made

Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice

Take a look
At your lips
At every secret they hath kept
At every love they have kissed

Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice

Take a look
At your heart
Is that temporary pain
Really worth ending it all?

Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice

Take a look
At your bully
At their scars
At their life

Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice

Take a look
At that friend
At that hurt
You could mend

Take a look
At that bottle
At it's promises
And flush them away

Take a look
At that knife
At it's point
And let it go deep in the trash

Take a look
At that rope
At it's knot
And burn it to dust

Take a look
At your perfect life
Maybe once
Maybe twice.
