Some secrets are meant to be shared,
Some promises meant to be broken.
Some lives aren't meant to be spared,
Some words not meant to be spoken.
Some wings are meant to be flapped,
Some strings meant to be cut.
Some gifts aren't meant to be wrapped,
Some doors not meant to be shut.
Some lies are meant to be told,
Some shoes meant to be worn.
Some heroes aren't meant to be bold,
Some babies not meant to be born.
Some fish are meant to be caught,
Some mouths meant to be fed.
Some wars aren't meant to be fought,
Some books not meant to be read.
Some promises meant to be broken.
Some lives aren't meant to be spared,
Some words not meant to be spoken.
Some wings are meant to be flapped,
Some strings meant to be cut.
Some gifts aren't meant to be wrapped,
Some doors not meant to be shut.
Some lies are meant to be told,
Some shoes meant to be worn.
Some heroes aren't meant to be bold,
Some babies not meant to be born.
Some fish are meant to be caught,
Some mouths meant to be fed.
Some wars aren't meant to be fought,
Some books not meant to be read.
