OTHER PEOPLE 
 
Hold on, don't be afraid: 
You will lose all your fear when your best plans are laid. 
Don't think things will be fine 
If you just keep your head down, your mouth shut, and then toe the line – 
It takes time. 
 
Other people are hell, 
And I think of you... 
You're hell, 
So is there heaven in solitude? 
 
Calm down, don't be a fool. 
Is it too much to ask you to just keep your cool? 
Stand, fight for all you're worth! 
For we all see the very same sun rise from anywhere on Earth – 
A rebirth. 
 
Other people are hell, 
And I think of you... 
You're hell, 
So is there heaven in solitude? 
 
This is my world, I don't want to share it! 
Yes, it's my world, and my world alone. 
But to waste it is something I cannot condone. 
Tell me something I long to believe in – 
Those three words that I so long to hear. 
Would I care if those same words were spoke insincere? 
 
Other people are hell, 
And I think of you... 
You're hell, 
So is there heaven in solitude?
