life is hard, but it's been a little harder than usual lately

I wish I new why I am struggling through this

what makes it harder is the lack of understanding on my part

could I have changed this, why am I fighting life so hard?



how long can I survive this, i'm losing the strength to try

tell me, how am I supposed to live through this how do we get by?



We take one breath, let it out,

we take another an maybe somehow,

everything will work out to be just fine,

we take life 5 minutes at a time.

Life is hard, it didn't turn out like I hoped it would be

and I don't dare to dream, if dreaming leads to this cause when it's left to me,

it's hard to see past the sky becoming dark

if it makes no difference why am I tring to do my part?



I climb back from that fall again, it feels like a hundred times

how do I believe in a hundred and one, though we stumble to 99

To go on living, when all you've lived for is gone

to find faith when everything you know about life might be wrong

to find hope in the dark, to still believe there's a dawn

this is the courage to make a life, it is the strength to go on..
