I wish that I could find the perfect words To take away your hurt, but they just don't exist There's nothing I can say to try to numb your pain Afraid you'll have to find that comfort from within You've been through the dark, you made it, but face it It tore you apart, I see all those scars I used to fight the devil every night In my apartment building after leaving the bar Got a lot in common, me and you, I bet I just got done falling and you're losing grip I've been slipping lately, and you're 'bout to trip And I've been hell and back, and you ain't left there yet Truth is, we ain't looking at a pretty picture Exhaust is filling up the garage you sit in A mouth full of pills and a gut full of liquor Cuts in your wrist that are too deep for stitches We just wanna live, take off all our skin Find the broken part and try to get it fixed Find the hope we had and feel like normal kids Find a way that isn't tortured to exist Damn, all of the research and studies Donated money, and still we got nothing We dedicated days to mental health awareness Why do we still feel empty and embarrassed?
Tough times don't last Tough times don't last, tough people do This too shall pass The clouds gon' break, we'll drop the roof Like ooh, living the hard way Living the hard way
And I know your condition is awful, I lived it I swallowed those pills and I got the prescriptions I prayed up to God, I'm not even religious Tried everything twice, and the cycle is vicious Got a lot in common, I think, you and I Exhausted fighting thoughts of suicide I often wonder if the cloud I'm under Isn't gonna break until I lose my mind Huh, I bet you relate I bet when you're all by yourself, you can't seem to feel safe, same I bet you ain't scared of the grave But the man in the mirror makes you feel afraid The future started looking pretty grim for us Got a rope around your neck and you're about to jump Got a television sitting on the edge of the tub And an overdose of Ativan under your tongue Try to sit in a river when it's the middle of winter And hold a pistol to your head and see if you pull the trigger And that is just the beginning of living, lonely and bitter Because depression locked you up inside your head like a prison I know you're still out there You're quietly waiting for something to give You silently suffer alone And nobody knows 'cause you don't leave the crib
Tough times don't last Tough times don't last, tough people do This too shall pass The clouds gon' break, we'll drop the roof Like ooh, living the hard way Living the hard way
