It is sometimes harder than it seemed

I grew up in a city town
I was always a winner in my group
I was taught to always do my best
you always believed in me

Now look at me, I'm down and out
My dreams of love and success
drowned in my tears from defeat
I don't feel I can handle much more

take my hand cuz you have more
take my hand, don't close the door
take my hand I still believe in you
it is sometimes harder than it seemed
sometimes harder than it appeared to be

I really thought I had it good
proper parents and proper school
I was independant and passionate
maybe I lost site of connection

I called you looking for some help
I needed a friend, a pep talk
you didnt want to talk to me
I guess I understand, I wasn't good to you

take my hand, I won't let you fall
take my hand, it's not time to have it all
take my hand, you still desire life
it is sometimes harder than it seemed
sometimes harder than it appeared to be

I never thought I would be here
wanting to fall off that building up there
there are too many people not caring
too many people I left behind

I have no family, no support
I have no purpose anymore
no one really cares what I do
I am going to say good bye to you

take my hand, I promise to help
take my hand, it's not your time yet
take my hand, the future will be better
take my hand, its yours forever
take my hand, this is just the beginning
take my hand, life is still worth living
it is sometimes harder than it seemed
sometimes harder than it appreared to be.
