If life was not so quiet
Would it be easier to hear?
If we turned down the brightness
Would new sights appear?
Why is it only in darkness
That hope shines through?
Why is it that happiness
Always brings sadness too?
Is it possible to be lost
When you know exactly where you are,
Or is it simply confusion
That sets your life ajar?
Despite all these emotions
I still feel empty inside:
Simply going through the motions
Of a scary winding ride.
Sometimes I close my eyes,
And reach to touch the skies,
Cause surely there in starlight,
Faith and hope shine bright.
I'm wishing for a future
That's better than it's past.
If I continue looking forward
Each step is easier than the last.
Yet I cannot stop from pausing
To wonder one more time:
If life was ever easy
Would it even worth the climb?
