Dar Williams - Something To Get Through lyrics

[Verse 1] Wake up and you still feel the same It's hard to move and you're a-reeling from the pain You say you won't get better ‘Cause you don't deserve it, so you think And maybe you'll jump off Now that you're standing at the brink But it's really just a drag It won't get any worse It's not your special fate It's not an evil curse [Chorus] It's just something to get through I'll bet you will be laughing With your friends In the light of a better day Laughing away Just not today [Verse 2] When the darkness still won't turn to dawn It's like the underworld, and nothing pulls you up You were the shining one Yeah, turning the wheel the other way Happy to chase those Glimmers of sun around the day Now there are no meadow flowers No colors in the sky The dogs are laying low The fountains running dry [Chorus] It's just something to get through I'll bet you will be laughing With your friends In the light of a better day Laughing away [Bridge] And everyone is having fun, yeah Everyone is having fun They're so over it Bounce in their step Back in the ring Grieving's what you got It's not a personal thing And you'll be laughing We are your friends We've been there before We're waiting on the shore [Outro] So take that ride Take it and come back Come back soon, yeah Come back Come back soon, yeah Come back Come back soon, yeah
