This
life
is
heartless
and
it's
rarely
just
Full
of
sad
betrayals
and
misplaced
trust
And
it
can
suck
your
spirit
just
as
dry
as
dust
And
steel
your
soul
if
you
let
it
Oh
every
life
contains
its
sorrows
and
pains
Its
stormy
weather
and
its
rough
terrains
You
watch
me
wrestle
with
my
length
of
chain
And
smile
so
bravely
as
you
tell
me
Don't
lose
heart,
don't
lose
heart
Though
it
feels
like
yours
will
fall
apart
Just
remember
when
the
road
gets
dark
I
will
always
be
beside
you
Well,
I
spend
my
life
pursuing
fortune
and
fame
Chasing
rainbows
in
a
shadow
game
And
I'm
not
sure
what
I've
lost
is
worth
the
gain
Or
why
my
soul
remains
so
restless
You've
seen
me
stumble,
Lord,
you've
seen
me
fall
You
shared
my
triumphs
and
you've
seen
me
crawl
When
I
think
that
I
could
lose
it
all
You
give
me
courage
and
you
tell
me
Don't
lose
heart,
don't
lose
heart
Though
it
feels
like
yours
will
fall
apart
Just
remember
when
the
road
gets
dark
I
will
always
be
beside
you
When
the
road
gets
rocky
and
the
ride
gets
rough
And
the
best
you
got
to
give
ain't
good
enough
There
will
always
be
a
place
inside
my
love
Where
you
can
find
shelter,
where
you
can
find
shelter
Oh
every
life
contains
its
sorrows
and
pains
Its
stormy
weather
and
its
rough
terrains
You
watch
me
wrestle
with
my
length
of
chain
And
smile
so
bravely
as
you
tell
me
Don't
lose
heart,
oh
don't
lose
heart
Though
it
feels
like
yours
will
fall
apart
Just
remember
when
the
road
gets
dark
I
will
always
be
beside
you
I
will
always
be
beside
you
