From day to day I know that I'm in all of your conversations
|
You never have anything good to say about me
|
That's ok cause everyone's entitled to their own opinions
|
Cause everyone's a critic, and even on your best days
|
Someone's got something bad to say-
|
Yet I ignore the things I hear, ignore the things I fear
|
And look past all that tries to bring me down
|
And I know that I don't have much I
|
Sacrifice a good life while I watch these bills keep adding
|
Up and I know that I'm not getting any younger as another
|
Year passes by
|
I have to stop and wonder
|
If it's all really worth the struggle
|
Or that mirage of light I keep chasing at the end of the tunnel
|
Will get any brighter
|
Or will it just fade away the closer I get, the further it seems
|
From reaching my dreams
|
And I just don't know how much more I can
|
Take before I give up and throw it all away-
|
|

|
When push comes to shove
|
You gotta hold on, you gotta be strong
|
And look for that light from above
|
Cause everyone's out to bring you down
|
And if you can't keep your head up
|
Then your lost-
|
I've seen better days been told better ways
|
How to live and how to give, it's relative
|
I walk with sedatives it's hell I live
|
And home is sweet, I'm killing myself softly
|
My reflections show deep infections
|
It's hard to be, I look at myself, I look at this life
|
And all I feel is pain, god help me start again
|
I gotta keep on, I gotta keep on pushin' cause I
|
Some how some way keep comin' up short
|
Like everyday my minds playin' tricks on me
|
Everybody loves sunny days but I prefer
|
Grey ones and long nights because when the
|
Day comes, it's just another 24 and I'm still numb
|
Not so young I know what it takes, they say
|
Roll with the brakes and slip them ties with the fakes
|
I still get them shakes just thinkin' bout this
|
Ish right here two dub two maybe this gonna be
|
That year
|
|
[Bridge]
|
Everyone has to pay a price no matter what we sacrifice
|
I hope it's worth it nothing is for certain
