Smiling Through Shadows

Woke up today the sun is gray

Rainy tears that never stay

Underneath this sky so blue

Feel the storm but push on through

Clouds above but here I stand

Lightning strikes but here's my hand

In the dark we find the light

Dancing through the endless night

Smiling through the shadows deep

Laughing when we want to weep

Tomorrow's bright just out of sight

Keep on keeping through the night

Whispers tell me not to cheer

Echoes of forgotten fear

Cannot drown the song I sing

Rising up through everything

Smiling through the shadows deep

Laughing when we want to weep

Tomorrow's bright just out of sight

Keep on keeping through the night

Broken but we still can laugh

Hold onto our better half

Even when the world feels tough

We are made of tougher stuff
