sometimes a little is a lot

most of what you do won’t change anything
mostly you won’t be seen at all
face the fact that life can be a joke
for the world will laugh at you
apparently there’s a point to see
but I don’t know what it is
you can curse and scream
and rant and rave
it makes no difference
no difference at all

you have to work with the cards
that you’ve been dealt
play the hand you’ve got
nothing can mean everything
sometimes a little is a lot

 
life is not a battle
but it sure is a test
one where you get better
but never, never, never the best
every day that you wake up
you are meant to be here
if you need an answer
and a simple life
well good luck
‘cause you’re nuts

i get so tired
i get so run down
so I light a candle
and curse the darkness down

don’t take you’re pain out on others
don’t live in the pain yourself
stop fighting what you can’t change
and spend sometime on your soul
we’re all just specs in the dynamo
of this living breathing changing world
we are born naked we will die the same
so get a grip and toughen up
