Be The Best

Life isn't full
Until the sunburn peels
And your minds gone blank
While you trip on a plank
How sometimes you forget to breathe
And you don't know how to leave
When you love for a first
And you know it'll never burst
Say it too my face
And walk at my pace
Feel the air
Run through your hair
Kill the fears
Along with the tears
Be the best
And forget the rest
