lyrics

i have spent half my
life waiting for a
sign im doing
all right
if i need a hand i find
im always my own man, i have

tried to
remind myself
to have faith in the way
things play
cuz the universe and me are made up
of the same ol' thing, and it's

hard to
believe
that the same could be said
about you and me
if we wanna make it now
we need to find a way out

of here, my
dear
but i fear we are hitting
a dead end
and there's so much left to say but i must
be along on my merry

way, to the
days i had
known so very
long ago
it’s impropriety
what it is, you do to me

and it's hard to
believe
that we’re back in a place i thought
i could never be
if we wanna make it out
we gotta find our way now

i have tried
to abide
by the rules of a game
i don't have time
to learn, how could i play
when it’s my turn?

i still cry
from time to time
for the nights i play back  inside my mind
when i need a friend i try
to do the best i can

on my own
it’s all i’ve known
and i'm trying to succeed
by the light that's inside me
and when i'm tired to live
i know that something’s gotta give

and it's hard to believe
in a world that has so much
sadness to be seen
and though we fall astray
i find im doing every day

and it's hard to believe
that this is the way
life seems to be
i'm learning to put fate
in all the things that change

it's hard...
