My Way
de Tom MacDonald
I wish that I could find the perfect words
To take away your hurt, but they just don't exist
There's nothin' I can say to try to numb your pain
Afraid you'll have to find that comfort from within
You've been through the dark, you made it, but face it
It tore you apart, I see all those scars
I used to fight the devil every night
In my apartment buildin' after leavin' the bar
Got a lot in common, me and you, I bet
I just got done fallin' and you're losin' grip
I've been slippin' lately and you 'bout to trip
But I've been hell and back, and you ain't left there yet
The truth is, we ain't lookin' at a pretty picture
Exhaust is fillin' up the garage you sit in
A mouth full of pills and a gut full of liquor
Cuts in your wrist that are too deep for stitches
We just wanna live, take off all our skin
Find the broken part and try to get it fixed
Find the hope we had and feel like normal kids
Find a way that isn't torture to exist
Damn, all of the research and studies
Donated money and still we got nothin'
We've dedicated days to mental health awareness
Why do we still feel empty and embarassed
Tough times don't last
Tough times don't last, tough people do
This too shall pass
The clouds gon' break, we'll drop the roof
Like ooh, livin' the hard way
Livin' the hard way
And I know your condition is awful, I lived it
I swallowed those pills and I got the prescriptions
I prayed up to God, I'm not even religious
Tried everything twice and the cycle is vicious
Got a lot in common I think, you and I
Exhausted fighting thoughts of suicide
I often wonder if the cloud I'm under
Isn't gonna break until I lose my mind
Huh, I bet you relate
I bet when you're all by yourself you can't seem to feel safe, same
I bet you ain't scared of the grave
But the man in the mirror makes you feel afraid
The future started lookin' pretty grim for us
Got a rope around your neck and you about to jump
Got a television sittin' on the edge of the tub
And an overdose of ativan under your tongue
Try to sit in a river when it's the middle of winter
And hold a pistol to your head and see if you pull the trigger
And that is just the beginnin' of livin' lonely and bitter
Because depression locked you up inside your head like a prison
I know you're still out there
You're quietly waiting for somethin' to give
You silently suffer alone
And nobody knows 'cause you don't leave the crib
Tough times don't last
Tough times don't last, tough people do
This too shall pass
The clouds gon' break, we'll drop the roof
Like ooh, livin' the hard way
Livin' the hard way
Tough times don't last
Tough times don't last, tough people do
This too shall pass
The clouds gon' break, we'll drop the roof
Like ooh, livin' the hard way
Livin' the hard way
