This Too Shall Pass

Don't ask me why
things happen how they do.
I know just about
as much as you.

Don't close your eyes
just to block out the truth.
For I've got no one left here
if you do.

Sometimes I feel so small
in this world so big.
With the night so deep
and dark and vast.

So when I think that
I'm caving in,
I remember, remember, remember,
That this too shall pass.

Don't hold your head
in your hands in despair
We've fallen fast and far
but not beyond repair

And the fires will cease
to burn the cities we've built
there will be no more broken hearts
no more tears
and no more hurt

Sometimes I feel so small
in this world so big.
With the night so deep
and dark and vast.

So when I think that
I'm caving in,
I remember, remember, remember,
Oh, I remember, remember, remember,
That this too shall pass.

And all will start
where we left off.
And pick up our pieces
from off of the floor

And the future she holds
something wonderful.
I can hear our stories
rattling in her bones.

Sometimes I feel so small
in this world so big.
With the night so deep
and dark and vast.

And when I think that
I'm caving in,
I remember, remember, remember,
That this too shall pass.
