"I'm not afraid to walk this world alone." -My Chemical Romance


What tiny voices you have, my quiet ones, my dears

Over the din of the world they won't reach my ears

Speaking words without a rhyme, not even worth your time,

You barely can deter the world to let yourselves be heard

This wide expanse of cosmos stretches into limitless space,

So come face to face, make haste, to the truth

That with all the unfathomable miles between you and the end of the sky

That you and I should not waste the taste of our tongues hitting the back of our teeth

Seething words pouring, souring, out of our mouths one after another

Exploding stars cannot be heard over a measurable distance 

So ignore the scars your sentences could create into existance

My quiet ones, your loudest screams couldn't deem that the heavens lose their way

No way could your puny utterance stop the world to consume its fate

If your words can not destroy, then let your life create

Live so loudly and proudly that the meer whisper of your name moves mountains

Live so vehemently that volcanoes rumble, clouds tumble from the sky

Let your words start riots and actions arise fires

Desire to live so deafening that your past and future can pierce ears

So live like a lions roar, my loud ones, my dears
