• Maybe tomorrow is counting on me
  To learn my lessons today
  I'll start by taking a step at a time
  And stop throwing my blessings away
  I'll get myself up and I'll brush myself off
  And take back some of the pride that I've lost
  'Cause you can't always keep your feet on the ground
  I guess we all learn the hard way and we all fall down

  Who will turn your world around
  Bring you up when you're feelin' down

  Oh there's lots that I could say
  But just hold me now
  Cause our love will light the way

• For they told you life is hard
  Misery from the start,
  It's dull, it's slow, it's painful
  But I tell you life is sweet
  In spite of the misery
  There's so much more, be grateful
  So, who will you believe
  Who will you listen to
  Who will it be
  'Cause it's high time that you decide
  It's time to make up your own
  Your own state of mind
  Oh they told you life is long
  Be thankful when it's done
  Don't ask for more, be grateful
  But I tell you life is short
  Be thankful because
  Before you know it
  It will be over
  'Cause life is sweet, life is also very short

  Natalie Merchant

  Song, Sweet, Believe

• So you scream from behind your door, say what's mine is mine, and not yours
  I may have too much, but I'll take my chances
  Cause God's stopped keeping score
  And you cling to the things they sold you
  Didn't you cover your eyes when they told you that he can't come back
  Cause he has no children to come back for
  It so hard to learn, there's so much to hate
  Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
  And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
  So maybe we should all be praying for time

  George Michael
