Don't Give Up
When the happiness they sold you
Is yellowed out tarnished and torn
And still, the bill comes due
On the smile it loaned
With every grin worth saving
Though you may not feel that way
Don't give up because tomorrow
Will be different from today
When the pain in life is throbbing
Another issue up to bat
There's a knocking on your noggin
In fact, you can hear the crack
Before you give up and hand in
What's left of your hero's cape
Don't give up because tomorrow
Will be different from today
When you want to shrug your shoulders
But your afraid you'll lose your head
Where it seems it's the only thing
These days that's still attached
When all you want to do is give up
And the rest just give away
Don't give up because tomorrow
Will be different from today
