There Are Times

There are times when you know that I'm right.

There are times when you think I've got the answers.

and it hurts to admit that you're wrong.

​

You look to me for a shoulder to lean

but I'm sore from the weight I tend to carry

so I stand with my hand out to you.

​

It's so hard when you can't see the light

at the end of a darkened path

but I pray at the end of the day

that I'm your star shining on.

​

There are times when I'm not showing strength.

There are times when I hide behind a strong persona

but the truth is I'm weaker than a child

​

Take a deep breath, exhale all the pain.

Look in the mirror at the man I need to be now

then I'll reach with my hand out to you.

​

It's so hard when you can't see the light

at the end of a darkened path

but I pray at the end of the day

that I'm your star shining on.
