Give me something bigger,
But do I get tender,
Coz all that stands is dust,
Will it ever become a must.

Change is only temporary,
What you are is a contemporary,
Standing with head up high,
In the end was all a sigh.

Something feels not right,
Pangs of fear becomes wright,
Nowhere to go, I am stranded,
This is where it all landed.

Melancholy is all there is,
Going for a fun ride on a Ferris,
Looking through the window with hope,
All there came was a dope.

Making me feel like a scribble,
Which is what became a pebble,
Feeling like a crazy person,
My view is all of crimson.

Give me something bigger,

The “bigger” refers to wanting a better life that is meaningful away from chaos personified in my life.

What you are is a contemporary,

Here I am trying to convey the message that things occur to teach us a lesson at moments of happiness comes a point of sadness. Both occur simultaneously.

Will it ever become a must.

Yes it is very important to stay happy no matter what life throws at us.
