Real You

You lose someone, halfway through your life
you're changed forever, feels like
nothing you do can ever make it right.

You've got to push through the cloud,
to see the silver lining
you've got to make your way,
to the other side of the room.
You've got to take a step back,
to see what you've been missing,
But most of all, don't lose sight,
of the real you

Look back at your life before then,and how it is today.
What would be different, and what would stay the same
would you have the same friends you have now
or a totally different crew?
Sometimes you have to take the bad, with the good...

You've got to push through the cloud,
to see the silver lining
you've got to make your way,
to the other side of the room.
You've got to take a step back,
to see what you've been missing,
But most of all, don't lose sight,
of the real you

If you lose sight
of yourself
you might just lose your way
sometimes it's better
to stay, and say

You've got to push through the cloud, push through
the cloud, to see that silver lining
you've got to make your way, to the other side of the room.
You've got to take a step back,
to see what you've been missing,
But most of all, don't lose sight, no don't lose sight
but most of all don't lose sight of the real you,
no of the real you.


No, you haven't heard that song before, but i know that you've read those lyrics... they're to my first real song, Real You, and every time i sing it, it makes me feel a little better... Every day you say that you're going through a struggle to get "back to before Ash" or you "just need time to think" I think that you have the right to do that, so that's why i'm not e-mailing you or texting you anymore... i only talk to you when you reach out to me first... but i wish that you'd reach out more... There are a lot of cliche sayings in this world, and the chorus of my song is one big cliche, but i find that sometimes they work... i really don't know the exact pain that you're going trough, but i guess you'll never know what i'm going through... and i guess all i can ask is that you try and help yourself to those offering help around you... good night forever, Jeff... this is the last post that i'll be writing to you specifically...
