Everyday Is Beautiful
One day I would love to see what it looks like to be me
Take a peak from outside-in
See my smile, feel my grin
Sipping bottles of Chablis - somewhere warm upon the sea
You cannot see the place herein -
Cause only I know where I've been...

Why not smile when the sun comes out?
Equate it to a shower in the middle of a drought
Open up your eyes and see what you've been missing
Pull your lips away from the Dementor that you're kissing
Prisoner of Azkaban, the prison is your mind
With every doubt you've ever had your prison walls are lined
Step out of the shackles that held your feet in place
Find your way back to me - my steps you can retrace
I'll take you by the hand, I'll lead you on a journey
I could be your man, you wouldn't have to worry

Everyday is beautiful in case you haven't noticed
Even when they're unusual, you need to know this
Make the best of every situation that you're in
Cause you will never-ever-ever be right here again
While all the world around you tears apart at the seams
Try to search inside your heart to follow your dreams
Nothing worthwhile's comes easy to date
But good things are said to come to those who can wait
Take a break from the struggle, the strife
And take a deep breath, feel the rush that is life
Once upon a time, as a child you believed -
Not everything in life's exactly as perceived
On the other side of the rainbow sits a pot of gold
Believe for as long as you'd like - you'll never get too old
To hold onto the hope that lies inside everyone
Dormant in some, but it's the light of a hundred suns
So let it shine bright, and share your hope with the world
Shine it on the future - every boy and every girl
I feel like that one guy in that one movie
I smile quite a bit and you're kind of moody
My friends make me realize how good we have it
People bitch and piss and moan it's frankly out of habit
There are people 'round the world - everyday they cry
People go to sleep at night wishin' they would die
Don't shake your head, just be thankful it's not you
And if it is vow to make a change and follow through
This, here and now, is the one thing that you've got
So don't twirl your thumbs, get up and take a shot
You never truly know what might come of something
I got some money for my writing. Now say I'm bluffing
There are opportunities to your left and right
And if you don't take them then I think I just might
Because I'm not afraid to live the life I am designing
Don't sidestep the spotlight. It's for shining
