Getting By

I know it can be hard to get by
And sometimes you just want to give up and die
And this life it can be hard to survive
So just try and hold your head up high

So get up
Pick yourself off the ground
I know
It's easy to get knocked back down
You're so bruised
Beaten black and blue
His pulse
Burns through you

I know it can be hard to get by
And sometimes you just want to give up and die
And this life it can be hard to survive
So just try and hold your head up high

You can fly
Soaring through the sky
And it's hard
If you're afraid of heights
So jump in
To the depths of your heart
And you will find
He was with you the whole time

I know it can be hard to get by
And sometimes you just want to give up and die
And this life it can be hard to survive
So just try and hold your head up high

And I know you're in pain
And you can't getaway
You lose every day
And you cry when you pray
And God hears you calling out his name
And he tries to guide you
But you're so far away
And you try to escape
But it seems there's no way
You can't escape fate
You just feel out of place
And every day you run in one place
Try running at a different pace
And seek out his face
And maybe one day
You will finally win this race

I know it can be hard to get by
And sometimes you just want to give up and die
And this life it can be hard to survive
So just try and hold your head up high
