Always keep a stiff upper lip
Always keep your chin up,
But when the weight of the world is hanging on you,
What is one to do?
I try so hard to stay happy
To stay cheerful and light.
Yet with a sea of death and despair around me,
It makes everything seem futile.
I Try so hard,
To be a shoulder to cry on
To be the comfort my friends may call on.
But when will I be given the same,
Or am I to harden my heart,
and "Take it like a man?"
