It’s not easy
Staying sane
When the world
Becomes a madhouse.

It’s not easy
To keep going
When your life
Grinds to a halt.

It’s not easy
Being kind
When you’re always
Dodging bullets.

It’s not easy
Trying to build
When everybody
Wants to wreck.

It’s not easy
Holding on
When you just want
To let go.

It’s not easy.

Yet giving up is harder,
So you just soldier on.

But it’s not easy.
