Lyrics by Sarah Jacob
SOMETIMES
Verse 1
Sometimes the hardest thing
Is knowing what to say
When you wake up in the morning
On any given day
Sometimes the hardest thing
Is knowing what to do
When the river is flowing
Where you don’t want it to.
Chorus 1
I am reaching
I am trying
I am fallen
I am uprising
I am holding on
I am letting go
I am trying to be still
While the current
Ebbs and flows.
Verse 2
Sometimes the hardest thing
Is knowing how to be
Content with who you are
Instead of who you’d rather be.
Sometimes that hardest thing
Is to appreciate
How far you have come
Despite the twists and turns
Of fate.
Chorus 2
I am searching
I am seeking
I am looking
Sometimes seeing
I am the faithful
And the faithless
Swinging between
Non-being
And Somethingness.
Verse 3
Sometimes the hardest thing
Is knowing how you feel
After hiding like a thief
The only part of you
That’s real
Sometimes the hardest thing
Is knowing how to love
But it’s the only thing in the end
That is ever
Good enough.
Chorus 3
I am climbing
Swan diving
Free falling
Uprising
I am holding on
And letting go
Trying to be still
While the wind
Carries me home.
Verse 4
Sometimes the hardest thing
Is learning to forgive
Yourself for all those wasted times
That you never lived.
