ALL THROUGH LIFE
WE FIND THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS
THAT LAY HEAVY ON OUR HEARTS
SEEMS WE CAN NOT BREATHE
FOR THE WEIGHT IN OUR SOULS
WE LOOK AROUND FOR HELP
BUT FIND NONE
WE DO NOT KNOW
WHERE TO TURN

LIFE IS SO OVERWHELMING
THAT WE FEEL PERHAPS
IT WOULD BE BETTER
TO JUST LEAVE THIS LIFE ON EARTH
WE BEGIN TO FEEL THAT
NO ONE WOULD MISS US IF
WE WERE NO LONGER HERE
OUR HEARTS AND SOULS HURT SO MUCH
THAT WE FORGET HOW TO HEAL
FORGET HOW TO LOVE
FOR THERE IS ONLY SELF LOATHING
HOW DO WE FIND OURSELVES AGAIN
WHERE DO WE TURN FOR PEACE

THIS HAPPENS TO ME FROM TIME TO TIME
I TOO FORGET THE GOOD THINGS IN MY LIFE
BUT THAN SOMEONE SMILES
SOMEONE TOUCHES MY HAND
THEY MIGHT NOT EVEN KNOW
THAT THEY HAVE PULLED ME UP
FROM THE DEPTHS OF DEPRESSION
MY MIND BEGINS TO OPEN UP
I BEGIN TO REALIZE
WHAT I ALREADY KNEW
THAT PEACE COMES FROM WITHIN
NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS
IN YOUR LIFE
IF YOU CAN REACH UP
WITH YOUR EYES
AND SEE THE SUN
NOT THE SUN IN THE SKY
BUT THE SUN WITHIN YOUR SOUL
THAN PEACE WILL COME AGAIN
