Not Easy
I take my pills instead of drink
Now I can't drive and I can't think
They really only make me sleep
I'm so uneasy
Before this I was running scared
Always anxious and unprepared
Now I'm just empty and unaware
But still uneasy
It's only after darkness that we see the light
It's only after weakness that we find our might
We only find our smiles once we have cried
But it's not easy
No it's not easy
I'm not crying but I'm barely here
I have to smile, struggling over tears
This mask has seen so many broken years
And it's not easy
Can't stop yet, I haven't done enough
No slowing down even when life's rough
You'll never know failure if you never give up
But it's not easy
Nobody said life was easy
