This Is Life

🎵 This Is Life 🎵

Every day I fight my way into the light,

drink my coffee black in the morning, no sugar, no smile,

a deep look, yeah, a deep breath I take,

but something is missing, no matter what I make.

I walk through my room, back and forth,

everything’s silent, like nothing has worth,

mmh mmh… it’s been so long,

since I was laughing, where did it go wrong?

Through these long and heavy days,

tears are running down my face,

I’m searching for a little light,

but I’m lost in endless nights.

I scream my pain out loud tonight,

but no one hears me, no one sees,

deep inside there’s rage and fire,

burning slowly inside of me.

This is life – cold and rough,

sometimes it breaks you, hits too hard,

but I stand up again somehow,

‘cause there’s still a spark in my heart.

Time keeps running, I can’t hold on,

thoughts keep spinning, something feels wrong,

faces fading, memories stay,

I’m learning slowly to find my own way.

Nights are long, I can’t sleep at all,

fighting myself, I refuse to fall,

mmh mmh… asking why,

but I keep moving, I don’t say goodbye.

In the shadows of my soul,

there are scars I can’t control,

but a fire deep inside,

whispers softly: “Stay alive.”

I scream my pain out loud tonight,

but no one hears me, no one sees,

deep inside there’s rage and fire,

burning slowly inside of me.

This is life – cold and rough,

sometimes it breaks you, hits too hard,

but I stand up again somehow,

‘cause there’s still a spark in my heart.

Maybe there will come a day,

when I feel and I don’t break,

when my heart begins to heal,

and the darkness starts to fade.

Till then I walk this road alone,

even if I’m on my own,

‘cause deep inside I always know:

I fall… but I will rise again.
