(Verse 1) My life is far from perfect, but it’s not falling apart It’s somewhere in the middle, like the weather in my heart The beauty of the world is how it keeps its distance It watches as we rise and fall with quiet, cold persistence It doesn’t cheer when you’re laughing, doesn’t flinch when you cry It never wipes away your tears or paints a brighter sky It only leaves the doorway open at your feet And waits to see which kind of life you’re gonna meet (Chorus) Because the road is full of heartache, every soul will crawl And it’s only up to you if you get up when you fall Don’t surrender to the voices, don’t let them make you leave There’s a strength inside the shadows you can still believe (Verse 2) And in the quiet drifting, where the long nights never end You find that just one fragile love can be your only friend It can carry every promise, make the distant lights shine through Even when the darkness hides the path in front of you But the deepest kind of heartbreak is the chance we leave behind The words we never managed and the touch we didn’t find A memory that haunts me, like an old, familiar tune A story I’ve been singing since the days of my youth (Chorus) Because the road is full of heartache, every soul will crawl And it’s only up to you if you get up when you fall Don’t surrender to the voices, don’t let them make you leave There’s a strength inside the shadows you can still believe (Outro) So take the chance before it fades away… Don’t let the quiet be the last word that you say.
