Life's problems come down more
Than you can bear,
And you seem to think there's
No one out there who cares.
Those problems seem to get pretty
Sticky at times,
And you wish just for once everything
Would go fine.
You have heartaches and pain,
It seems you can never find
Happiness to gain.
You wish you could lock them up
And throw away the key,
To start a brand new life and
say i'm gonna be me.
But everything keeps getting harder
everyday,
You wish so bad that there was
another way.
Maybe someday soon you'll get
your wish.
But you may find out life isn't
always a delicious dish.
So in the mean time you'll have
to face your problems with a smile,
For they'll all go away after while,
Life is tough as you can see,
But it's entirely up to you how
you want it to be.
Just put your problems far behind,
For they'll all go away in time.
So be the best you can be,
Because "Happiness comes when you
look in the mirror and like
what you see."
"Make the least of the worst and
the most of the best,"
And life will come out better than
you expect.
