Cherish

I think the title speaks for itself :) http://soundcloud.com/keriun/cherish-midi-draft

You want everything you don't have 
and everything that you are is just greed. 
You wish for everything you don't have 
but everything that you want is not a need.

Regret is sinking in, 
like teeth on your skin. 
This is a broken dream. 
It's unforgiving.

We don't even see 
these are the treasures in front of us. 
And we forsake the things we need most, 
and people who value us. 
Oh…

Welcome to a world where your actions speak, 
and what you get is not always what you seek. 
Maybe these fortunes will come, in time, 
but forever bear this in mind- 
that you're always in need.

Never risk your friends, 
and you won't lose your friends. 
Always appreciate them, 
always believe in them.

We don't even see 
these are the treasures in front of us. 
And we forsake the things we need most, 
and people who value us. 
It's a mistake we 
only realize once they are lost. 
We should always keep them in arms, 
and cherish what's dear to us all.

All there was to cherish 
is now a memory (a memory) 
All there is to love 
is just everything you lose.
