To Hold On (A Letter To My 16 Year Old Self)

Hey
You weren't what I thought you'd be
In the stories I used to dream up
When I was lonely between
The other kids
Hey
The things I wanted you to live
You didn't live a single one
But you know what? You were alive
So that's a start

I know that things didn't go as planned, but
I hope you're not scared, I know you are, but
Even when it seems that there is nothing left
For you, it's not the end
I know you wish that you were not here, and
I know you don't know where you'd like to be, and
I wish that I had the words you need
But I don't

I can only tell you to hold on
Just try to hold on to what you can
Because someday there will be brighter days
And all these dark days will all be passed
I can only tell you to hold on
Just try to hold on to what you can
Because someday there will be brighter days
So try to hold on, onto the light
