Not Always Like This

It won't always be like this.

You feel like it won't ever end

Like the day is ending to start again

A never ceasing cycle

Nod, act, and on your face paste a smile.

Baby, it won't always be like this. Tell yourself it won't always be like this.

Sell your points and make your stand;

Get yourself to the promised land,

But it's not what you'd thought it'd be.

Now you're lost and there's no direction you can see.

But they tell you, baby it won't always be like this.

You lose yourself in the process of trying,

You act like you're invincible, inside you're dying.

You stand up to fall down, and you can't make a move.

There's no where to go, there's no where for you.

When you think you've escaped, it's right there behind.

When you think you're back out, it consumes your mind.

But it's not supposed to be like this, it's not always supposed to be like this.

Your fears are overpowering, and you've lost control.

Your enemies attack your mind and your soul

And somewhere in there, you stand up and you fight.

Even though it saps you of all of your might.

But someday you'll snap, and a strength will arise.

You'll get a small feeling they call surprise..

A dawn will break that you won't want to miss.

And baby, it'll be done being like this.
