let the ripples rule

So your world fell apart, You can't go on All the truth has vanished Nothing left to hold on to All you see is chaos Swirling all about you No one there to talk to No one there to turn to Seems to you the world has changed You don't know where you are But what seems now like the end Is just a new place to start But the world never really changes The good and bad stay in view What makes them seem so different Is your changing point of view Pain feels like a tsunami Sweeping everything away And the good's only a tiny ripple That slowly comes your way But those ripples are strong Those ripples are real Open up your heart and eyes Their strength you will soon feel In the end it's up to you How far down or up you go You can look at the bad and freeze in one place Or seize on the good let the ripples fill your space Ride the ripples to a rainbow Don't be fooled by their size They are stronger than tsunamis They are powered by a smile
