Life's never gonna be the same

When I start feel as though I've gotten a grip
My hands grow weak and I start to slip

I've given up falling, but I'm still going down
And under a smile I still wear a frown

I'm starting to heal, but I've so far to go
This life, on occasion, seems like a show

And it occurs to me in this numbness of pain
That my life will never be the same again

Life's Never Gonna Change


In your life's experiences you've gained a grip
with even weak handles, there's no risk of slip

Remember why you are falling and you'll stop going down
And behind your smile there's no room for a frown

You will hear as your friends help you go
Live through your love and let it all show

And the next time one of us falls into numbness of pain
We'll remember life is never gonna change again.

its weird how everyone feels like this at some point...but everyone pretends that everythings ok as they go through their day to day stuff. then you start thinking youre the only one, and eveyrone else is ok...but you arent alone
