Stand Strong

When the night .. is dark
and the road .. is long
And you can't .. seem to find
any reason .. to carry on
 
That's the time .. to look inside
There is strength .. though it may hide
 
 
I know .. you've tried
and failed .. so many times
I know .. you're tired
you just want . to give up and die
 
Stand up .. stand strong
It can't hurt .. for too long
 
When you're as low .. as you can get
Just know your life .. ain't over yet
 
 
There's a time .. there's a place
where you can step back .. from the race
The place is here .. the time is now
Just close your eyes .. and let it go
 
Raise your glass .. and toast your friends
and trust the good times .. will come again
 
Stand up .. stand strong
Hard days don't last .. forever long
 
Yes, night will fall .. but morning comes
Kickstart your life .. and carry on

Author's Note
I hear this in my head as slow & bluesy - maybe something Bob Seger might sing.
