It Needs To Be

 

A lot of people out there want to see

things develop right in front of them

rather then through something else,

but sometimes it needs to be;

 

it’s better to watch a child grow in person

then having pictures to read,

better to have friends by your side

then on the phone,

better to have family when you need them

while they are still home,

but sometimes goodbye needs to be;

 

when there’s frustration arguing and hate

in the inside its best to leave something’s behind;

turn off the light and close the door

store the keys and park the car

miss the parties celebrate another time

and take your soul to see something different;

it clears the eyes opens the mind,

and lets the end begin a new beginning;

 

it’s better to see life through pictures then nothing at all

better to talk through a signal then all words being mute

better to have a home to return to instead of the streets to rome;

but sometimes goodbye needs to be said

to start a better life, have loved ones with you

even when there’s a distance; but I would rather have that distance,

the pictures, a strong signal and

the fact that Ill return home one day

then to have nothing at all;

 

It’s a second chance to make things right

a stronger feel for freedom,

a journey that leads to somewhere

rather then nowhere, so I say goodbye

knowing that Ill return one day

then saying nothing at all

and just leaving life behind.

Those are my favorite parts. I like the comparison/contrast.
