These times will try hard to define me

And I’ll try to hold my head up high

But I’ve seen despair here from the inside

And it’s got a one track mind

And I have this feeling in my gut now

And I don’t know what it is I’ll find

Does anybody ever feel like

You’re always one step behind

Now I’m sitting alone here in my bed

I’m waiting for an answer I don’t know that I’ll get

I cannot stand to look in the mirror, I’m failing

I’m telling you these times are hard

But they will

And I know there’s someone out there somewhere

Who has it much worse than I do

But I have a dream inside, a perfect life

I’d give anything just to work

It’s like I’m only trying to dig my way out

Of all these things I can’t

And I am sitting alone here in my bed

I’m waiting for an answer I don’t know that I’ll get

I cannot stand to look in the mirror, I’m failing

I’m telling you these times are hard

But they will pass

They will pass

They will pass

These times are hard

But they will

These times will try hard to define me

But I will hold my head up high

Sitting alone here in my bed

I’m waiting for an answer I don’t know that I’ll get

I cannot stand to look in the mirror, I’m failing

I’m telling you these times are hard

But they will pass

And I know there’s a reason

I just keep hoping it won’t be long ’til I see it

And maybe if we throw up our hands and believe it

I’m telling you these times are hard

But they will pass

They will pass

They will pass

These times are hard

But they will pass
