Heavy Heart Beneath a Clear Blue Sky

[Verse] He wakes up before the dawn's first light, Worn-out boots, another endless fight. Carries the weight, though he’s breaking inside, But a man’s gotta stand, no place to hide. [Chorus] You don’t know what’s behind his smile, “It is what it is,” he’ll say all the while. “I’m not okay, but I’ll get by,” A heavy heart beneath a clear blue sky. [Verse 2] Coffee’s cold, his hands shake a bit, Dreams long gone, but he won’t quit. He hides his pain like a badge of pride, But the truth’s a storm he can’t confide. [Chorus] You don’t know what’s behind his smile, “It is what it is,” he’ll say all the while. “I’m not okay, but I’ll get by,” A heavy heart beneath a clear blue sky. [Bridge] Late at night, the silence creeps, He’s fighting battles no one sees. The world’s so loud, but he’s all alone, A man’s mind’s a place no one’s ever known. [Chorus] You don’t know what’s behind his smile, “It is what it is,” he’ll say all the while. “I’m not okay, but I’ll get by,” A heavy heart beneath a clear blue sky.
