Just In Case



Just in case you’ve been savagely devastated,
Just in case you’ve been thoroughly betrayed,
Just in case you’ve been ruthlessly deceived,
Don't let it consume you, it is merely you.

 
Just in case you’ve transcended your limit,
Just in case you’ve sought your lost spirit,
Just in case despondency pays you a visit,
Stand still and never think to let it go.  

 
Just in case you’ve been entirely forgotten,
Just in case you’ve been vehemently beaten,
Just in case you are left to be rotten,
Hang on and be your own personal idol.

 
Just in case the demons are unleashed on you,
Just in case the angels have just abandoned you,
Just in case the distressing feelings turn to be true,
Remember who you are and be unprecedented.


The dreadful agony urges to dismay whoever grins,
Snapping its fingers to cement the sinister within,
Come hell or high water, synergy obliterates any sin,
Just in case you feel lost, do not succumb to inner fear.
