You Will Make It

Go to bed, everything's alright

Don't know the whole world's changing

As you sleep through the night

Wake up slowly and it's a different world

Hear the news and the floods begin

Screams so loud but only felt within

Heart is shattered

The pieces can't be found

I feel your pain

I wrote this song for you, for you

You will make it, you will make it through

I promise you he would want you to

Months go by still living in a daze

Don't know what you've done

With the last seven days

Soul is numb and life is like a dream

Helping hands but you push them away

How could they understand

Afraid to heal 'cause that would mean goodbye

I feel your pain

I wrote this song for you, for you

You will make it, you will make it through

I promise you, she would want you to

One day sunlight hits a photograph

And it makes you smile

The memories dance around you now

And they make you smile

You're not alone, you'll never be

Just like the stars they oversee

And they whisper to you you're still, you're still

You're still, you're still alive

I feel your pain

I wrote this song for you, for you

You will make it, you will make it through

I promise you, they would want you to

Do not stand at my grave and weep

I am not there, I do not sleep

I am a thousand winds that blow

I am the diamond glints on snow

I am the sun on ripened grain

I am the gentle autumn rain

When you awaken in the morning's hush

I am the swift uplifting rush

Of quiet birds in circled flight

I am the soft stars that shine at night

Do not stand at my grave and cry

I am not there, I did not die
