Even though

When something comes along,
so grand and so strong,
It makes me believe I have something above
and it helps me get out of this rut.
And just when I think it's going to be okay,
something happens, and it's taken away.
But even though it bothers me so,
I still find a reason to get up and go.
And even though I want to stop trying,
I'll just look up and try to stop crying.
Because even though; alone I've stood,
it's the hard times that make me appreciate the good.
