So it goes

So it goes

Feeling sentimental as it feels like the blues are on your shoulders
You feel as if you are carrying all the weight of the world on you
Thoughts of better times and the things that they brought to you
So many choices and pathways that should or could have been taken

A smile of joy at the good times but then you think of other times
And you just want to let the tears fall instead
Those mixed-up feelings that make you contemplate so much
Would another chance be any better than before

So it goes, you have been hurt in the past
So it goes, you are feeling like love will never last
So it goes, and you wish you would never feel this way again

Feeling so lost as you want to reach out for help
Just a moment of kindness to bring you back from the edge
A kind word or a smile to let you know you are not alone
Some sort of distraction to give the will to keep going on

is it so much easier to wallow in the past and let those feelings keep you trapped
So much good came from you and those moments are there to hold until the last
But can you keep making the same mistakes again and again
Come on now, lift your head and show that you can rise again

So it goes, you have been hurt in the past
So it goes, you are feeling like love will never last
So it goes, and you wish you would never feel this way again

The new day dawns and you fight to find the way
The strength inside you and you just need to reach out
There are people around you that need you and will be there for you as well
Just take that first step and know that there is a way for you

So, it goes...
