flake

i know she said it's alright
but you can make it up next time
i know she knows it's not right
there ain't no use in lying
maybe she thinks i know something
maybe maybe she thinks its fine
maybe she knows something i don't
i'm so
i'm so tired
i'm so tired of trying


it seems to me that maybe
it pretty much always means no
so don't tell me you might just let it go
and often times we're lazy
it seems to stand in my way
cause no one
no
not no one

likes to be let down

i know she loves the sunrise
no longer sees it with her sleeping eyes
and i know that when she said she's gonna try
well it might not work because of other ties and
i know she usually has some other ties
and i wouldn't want to break them
nah
i wouldn't want to break them

maybe she'll help me to untie this but
until then well

the harder that you try
the further you'll fall

still upward be your onward course
for this i pray today
still upward as the years go by
and seasons pass away

still upward in this coming year
your path is all untried
still upward may you journey on
close by your saviour's side

still upward although sorrow come
and trials crush your heart
still upward may they draw your soul
with christ to walk apart

still upward till the day shall break
and shadows all have flown
still upward till in heaven you wake
and stand before the thrown

i will send down showers in season,
there will be showers of blessing.
