It's Getting Harder
It's getting harder
And harder
To face each day
The cards are all stacked against me
Each day an uphill climb
With obstacles and headaches
Paying for my ghosts
My past regrets
The consequences of my mistakes
I am reaping what I sowed
Its getting harder
To block out the noise
The voices are getting louder
And telling me what I should do
I already know the answer
But I'm scared
I'm afraid of the aftermath
I don't know if I have the guts
To set the world right
And pay my balance due
I often think what happens afterwards
Will the world be better without me
Will my family and friends be happier
It's not like I bring any value to life
I'm a mere spec of dust
In an endless sea of eternity
But deep down time moves on
And I know so to will they
And rather quickly
I know this
Thats why its getting harder
To resist the inevitable
Its time
Quit fighting
Quit resisting
Make it right
Do the world a favor
And harder
To face each day
The cards are all stacked against me
Each day an uphill climb
With obstacles and headaches
Paying for my ghosts
My past regrets
The consequences of my mistakes
I am reaping what I sowed
Its getting harder
To block out the noise
The voices are getting louder
And telling me what I should do
I already know the answer
But I'm scared
I'm afraid of the aftermath
I don't know if I have the guts
To set the world right
And pay my balance due
I often think what happens afterwards
Will the world be better without me
Will my family and friends be happier
It's not like I bring any value to life
I'm a mere spec of dust
In an endless sea of eternity
But deep down time moves on
And I know so to will they
And rather quickly
I know this
Thats why its getting harder
To resist the inevitable
Its time
Quit fighting
Quit resisting
Make it right
Do the world a favor
