They tell me I could make it through,
They tell me I’d survive this,
They tell me I’d soon find out,
How strong I really am.
“I could live without you”,
That’s what I’m supposed to say,
I’d be strong like they told me to,
And I’d be okay.
But I don’t want to be strong,
I don’t want to be the one who survives,
I don’t want to be the one who never cries,
Could I hold back the tears once we say goodbye?
I don’t want to say it,
Yes, I’d be the stubborn one,
The one who wouldn’t forget,
The one who never lets you go.
The thing about hope is that it’s a positive force that shines the most when it’s dark. When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.
