Not The End
Drenched in defeat, I just can't win
Can you make this rain, rain go away
If I just let go-- If I just give in --
Won't have to drown another day
Droplets of moments poured into years
Each day more trying than the last
Burdened by guilt, consumed by fear
Shackled by shame and tragic past
Tormented by time
I see no reason or rhyme
For me to stay around
Wonder how this world would be
Without the likes of me
Bringin' it down
This is
So Hard
No one told me this would be
So damn hard
Such agony
I try
So Hard
This is kiling me
But I've come
So damn far
This is not the end of me
The sun will surely rise again
It's never let me down
The rain is gonna come again
But I'm not gonna drown
If I keep on marching on my way
Into the horizon
Every new day starts the same old way
The sun is always risin'
Every day's a brand new start
To live and learn and love
No matter how far down you are
The sun is up above
And it's not
So Hard
Just to get through each day
Is it
So Damn Hard
To find a better way
It's not
So Hard
No one knows what will be
But I've come
So damn far
This is not the end of me.
