The Last Hero Standing

The last hero standing
Is on his knees crying
For his past is far behind him

Marched off on a whim
Left it all behind him
Never thought before he left
Whether everything would wait behind for him

He's a fool for going
A fool for trying
For leaving what matters most behind him

He'll get no second chance
Not even a glance
Of what he should have kept right beside him

Now what was is just a ghost
Can't hold it close
Unable to say sorry
For leaving that long time ago

Scars Made Us Who We Are

Many of us don't know who we are
Who we truly are
People won't sit back and stare at the stars
Or sit and hold hands happy with where they are
They'd much rather be spending their money on hiding their scars
Scars that makes us who we are
People need to lighten up and be happy
So what if we're not movie stars
We are who we are
People happy with our scars
I'll be damned if I say sorry
For we got our scars living lives
Not watching it all fly by
We can be fulfilled being where we are
Or by travelling far
Because that's who we are
Happy people with our happy scars
