you&#039;re only as tall <br /> as your heart will let you be <br /> and you&#039;re only as small <br /> as the world will make you seem <br /> and when the going gets rough <br /> and you feel like you may fall <br /> just look on the bright side <br /> your roughly six feet tall

The world is on fire and there's no where to go
We thought we never would see this day come because we were to blinded to see the lighters getting ready to strike
We are ignorant
We are blind
This is not the place we were destined to be.
