The Hardest Part

from Hopes and Dreams by Better Than The Book

/

lyrics

Here we are again
Another Two Years On by now
Think it’s time we ought to change

They tell me “It’s not a race
Just hurry up you better pick up the pace”
And I’m out of my parents’ place now that’s a start

Here we are again
Another Two Years On by now
Think it’s time we ought to change

They said “Keep your head up, boy
No time to give up now
If you want to go and chase your Hopes and Dreams”

And no one ever said it would be easy

And when it feels like just one of those days
JUST REMEMBER THAT
I’m still alive and breathing, and that’s worth something

And that nothing’s really holding you back
But the hardest part is starting
Stop thinking; start living

And when you’re waking up
Mind filled to the brim with doubt
And you can’t bear to face the day

You’ve just gotta get up now
Drag yourself out of bed
And say “Shut up” to the voice that’s in your head

And no one ever said it would be easy

And when it feels like just one of those days
JUST REMEMBER THAT
My heart's still beating, and that’s worth something

And that nothing’s really holding you back
But the hardest part is starting
Stop thinking; start living

Here we are again
Another Two Years On by now
Think it’s time we ought to change
