life goes on.

bands break up
products get discontinued
and life goes on.

people make you happy
people make you sad
people pass on before you.
but, life goes on.

sometimes it rains
sometimes it pours
sometimes the sky holds out and the ground threatens to crack.
and life goes on...

...but sometimes it doesn't
someone's child died today, right in this very city.
someone's baby won't ever see the daylight.
someone's left crying and trying to say goodbye.

life goes on.

and somewhere a baby was born, healthy, crying.
someone's attempted suicide was stopped.
someone fell to their knees and found grace.

change isn't fun.
God isn't shaken.
life is a gift.
heaven is a gift.
life will go on.

sometimes it's the moment when you think it's over; or you will never find the strength to stand back up or keep on moving that makes you the strongest.
