These Hard Times

Morning falls like rain
into the city life
there goes another night
losing my breath in waves
knowing that every crash
is bleeding the hourglass
and taking the stride from all our lives

everyone keeps talking
they promise you everything
but they don't mean anything

we may loose our focus
there's just too many words
we're never meant to learn
and we don't feel so alive

say goodbye
these days are gone
and we can't keep holding on
when all we need is some relief
from these hard times

move your hands in circles
keeping me hypnotized
the power behind your eyes
move around your bedroom
cursing the naked sky
you should be here tonight
but you stay alone
and cry

say goodbye
these days are gone
and we can't keep holding on
when all we need is some relief
from these hard times

there's something missing
you'll never feel it but you
you're gonna feel it when it's gone
when it's gone

say goodbye
these days are gone
and we can't keep holding on
when all we need is some relief
through these hard times.

Matchbox 20

These days are so hard to get through.

Morning always seems so far away.

And even so, all it is, all it brings
is just another day.

Yet I can't help but hope
that tomorrow's morning will bring something different.
