12 Situations I won't stop to think anymore
from this point on
I'm going to live
and abide by only the truth.
Fact and fantasy are one
and I can't help 
but feel good to know 
that when I smile-
this time, it's the real thing...

I tried to picture this world
without casualty- 
but I am still a wanderer...
and I will forever question
every beautiful thing I see...
But I can find solace and serenity
in words that prove I'm still okay,
whether sounding, or unspoken.

we find happiness- 
and the price at which it is bought
becomes a less important currency.
I tried to picture this world
without you-
and I am still taken by the thought
that I would cease to exist.

And now, reality appears
and sanity causes solidity 
when I am close to you
and I won't budge for insecurity
this time...
my thoughts are still racing
but I am waiting, heart in hand,
standing at the finish line.
