Hard Times

Till the end of time
I won't ever tell you that I’ve tried
To be everything you'd hope that I could be
I almost threw it all away
But I guess that sometimes
You lose your grip and let things slide away
So far away
That there's no end in sight
Could almost throw it all away
Hard times are coming
Hard times are coming
I won’t beg
I won't lie
I know you'll find a way to make it right
When you need
'Cause sometimes it won't just go the way that you want it to be
Don't go and throw it all away
Hard times are coming
Hard times are coming
Hard times are coming
I might not be there with you darlin'
But it's only a state of mind
We'll all be leaving here sometime
All my love will keep you shining
When you’re lost to a troubled mind
And light a way that you might find
Hard times are coming
Hard times are coming
Hard times are coming
