But out there the world is a beautiful place.

Some people get up at the break of day
Gotta go to work before it gets too late
Sitting in a car and driving down the road
It ain't the way it has to be

But that's what you do to earn your daily wage
That's the kind of world that we live in today
Isn't where you wanna be
And isn't what you wanna be

Give me one more day (one more day)
Give me another night (just another night)
I need a second chance (second chance)
This time I'll get it right (This time I'll get it right)

I'll say one last time (one last time)
I've got to let you know (I've got to let you know)
I've got to change your mind (I've got to change your mind)
I'll never let you go (I'll never let you go)

You've got to look at life the way it oughta be
Looking at the stars from underneath the tree
There's a world inside and a world out there
With that tv you just don't care

They've got violence, wars and killing too
All shrunk down in a two-foot tube
But out there the world is a beautiful place
With mountains, lakes and the human race
This is where I wanna be
And this is what I wanna do

Give me one more day (one more day)
Give me another night (just another night)
I need a second chance (second chance)
This time I'll get it right (This time I'll get it right)

I'll say one last time (one last time)
I've got to let you know (I've got to let you know)
I've got to change your mind (I've got to change your mind)
I'll never let you go (I'll never let you go)

Just give me one more chance (one more chance)
Give me another night (just another night)
With just one more day (one more day)
You know I'll get it right (You know I'll get it right)

I'll say one last time (one last time)
I've got to let you know (I've got to let you know)
If I could change your mind (If I could change your mind)
I'll never let you go (I'll never let you go)

< rant>
it takes so much to just go on
i know i'm not strong enough for other people
yet i still try.
and in the end i just end up screwing them and myself up.
a lot.
i'm so tempted to give up on myself.
it sucks to hurt so much.
it sucks that other people hurt so much.
yet sometimes...

But out there the world is a beautiful place
With mountains, lakes and the human race
This is where I wanna be
And this is what I wanna do


i'll keep trying.
i'm not gonna give up. on myself.
and when i'm stronger and not hurting so much, not on other people.

the world is a beautiful place. a friendly smile from an innocent child, the knowingly bad joke from a friend, the sunlight filtering thru foilage, the genuine laughter from a group of teens caught up in their silly antics, a peck on the cheek exchanged between a couple freshly in love, a unexpected midnight call from a friend that you thought you had lost contact with.
we got to believe in it.
if we don't believe in all these, then there's nothing worth believing at all.

i choose the world that i wanna live in.
i choose how i wanna perceive it. i choose how i wanna believe in it.
it's my choice. and i choose not to think negatively about it.
if it still fucks up, at least i can say i have tried my best.

back to the bottle.
