We don't even ask for happiness, just a little less pain
In a world that often seems unfair, where hope seems in vain
Our tired souls cry out for a reprieve from all the strife
Just a moment of peace, a soothing balm to calm our lifeThe weight of all the hurt we carry feels too much to bear
Our hearts are heavy with sorrow, our minds filled with despair
Every day, it seems we face another daunting trial
We wonder if we'll make it through, if we have the strength to smileWe long to find a sanctuary, a place to call our own
A haven where we can rest and heal, where we won't be alone
But oftentimes, the world around us is full of shattered dreams
And the healing we so desperately crave is not as easy as it seemsWe try to keep our heads above the water, to stay afloat
But sometimes it feels like we're drowning, like we're stuck in a moat
We scramble for some solid ground, for a place to steady our feet
But oftentimes it's just a mirage, a cruel illusion we can't meetWe wonder where we'll find the strength to carry on each day
When all around us, everything's in disarray
But deep within our weary souls, there's a flicker of hope
A spark of light that whispers quietly that we can copeWe remember all the moments that have lifted us before
All the times someone's kind words or deeds helped us to restore
And we cling to those memories, to the hope they can inspire
We push ourselves to keep on going, even when it's hard to aspireBecause we know that in this world, there's so much more than pain
And though the hurt may feel insurmountable, it doesn't have to reign
We can find the strength to move forward, to keep reaching for the light
To keep our hearts open to love, and our spirits shining brightSo though we don't ask for happiness, just a little less pain
We know that we can make it through, if we share a little compassion again
We can reach out to one another, offer a shoulder to cry on
Help each other through the struggles, until the dark days are goneFor though the road ahead may seem bleak, there's still hope in the air
Hope that we can find the solace we seek, that we can find some repair
And though we may be weary souls, with hearts heavy as lead
Our strength and spirit can persevere, and carry us ahead.
