- What's Inside
You've lived your life And how you survived I'll never know People talk of hardships What do they know What do they know Of the strength you had to show To stop yourself from crying out To keep you head above the sand Those times when you were in dispair When trouble seemed your only friend Somehow you kept your spirits high You told him straight don't call again Now there were times When it seemed I didn't care Don't misjdge my silence You had my sympathy I had sympathy And I admired how you Stopped yourself from crying Kept your head above the sand When trouble seemed your only friend Somehow you kept your spirits high You told him straight Don't call again And now the future's looking bright You fought alone and won the fight Kept your faith When times were hard you made it through Trouble seemed your only friend Somehow you kept your spirits high You stopped yourself from crying out You kept your head above the sand Those times when you were in despair Trouble seemed your only friend Somehow you kept your spirits high You told him straight Don't call again
