This year
Is the year I go hard:
Hard body, hard mind
Heard head, hard heart
Hard living in a hard world
Hard way to go
Hard time to get there
Things that were easy
Now they are hard
Waking up, going to sleep
Working and loving,
Living and dying–
It’s all gonna be hard
And things that were hard
Now they are harder
Waking up, going to sleep
Working and loving,
Living and dying–
It’s all gonna be harder
I see ahead
A long line to nowhere
I see behind
A long line to here
I see here and know that it’s nowhere
I see nowhere
And I’m glad that it’s here
I wake to darkness
Go back to sleep
I wake again
Go back to sleep
The dreaming and scheming
That got me this far
Now it’s got to go further
Because everything’s hard
