Not another sob story

This is a product of a jobless evening in the R2 in the 1st sem. I didn't know what to do, and just msged a friend in Madras (yes, an authentic maddu) out of boredom. He told me to 'try something new'. So I thought I'd try some kinda lyrics ... This is the product of my emotions at the time. Its dedicated to that Maddu friend, and two women in my life (they know who they are, having contributed bits of the lyrics :P) who've been an inspiration to me with their grit in times of distress.

Every cloud has a silver lining,
But the darker ones have a brighter lining,
Its all the same, it just looks like so; say some
And thats the whole point, to notice it so.

But what about a black hole?
That inescapable cloud of darkness?
What happens when it is easier to embrace the darkness
Than hold on to the Light?

"I just want this hell to end!
I can't I can't! I can't take it anymore!
I just can't I just can't!
I want to scream and just break!
I want to just break..."

A glass half full, or one half empty?
Thats for the philosophers to decide
But how does one between a glass choose
Being just about empty or but a drop full!

Pain will come and pain will go,
Pain must come and pain must go,
But to suffer, you can decide
Or else just take it in your stride.

"I just want this hell to end!
I can't I can't! I can't take it anymore!
I just can't I just can't!
I want to scream and just break!
I want to just break..."

"My life was flowing on,
Like a boat among streams and rapids,
Until that waterfall, until that waterfall,
And all that I thought I had, all I took for granted,
Is gone...
So now where do I restart from?"

"I just want this hell to end!
I can't I can't! I can't take it anymore!
I just can't I just can't!
I want to scream and just break!
I want to just break...
And never feel again."
