Blink

You?re gonna cry. When you least expect someday.
I?m not gonna lie. It?s always gonna be that way
And there?s nothing that you can do, to replace that piece of you.
And there?s nothing you can say, that?ll make the hurt go away.
Cause you blinked and it?s gone
You turned your head and it?s all long gone.
There?s always something else you can lose
And it, doesn?t take long. . . . you blink and it?s gone.
Break 1
Sometimes I wonder why I get out of bed, some days I don?t even try.
Sometimes I just start the day in the same clothes I was wearing last night.
I?ve been so busy thinking about all the wrong turns I made.
I can?t remember where I?m headed this time.
Cause you blinked and it?s gone.
You turned your head and it?s all long gone.
There?s always something else you can lose
and it, doesn?t take long. . . . you blink and it?s gone.
Break 2
And every once in a while, you?ll find things seem to be O.K.
So go ahead and smile, cause it?s not gonna stay that way.
You just roll with the punches. Don?t let the bastards have it all.
Keep something safe inside, so even if the sky should start to fall.
You can blink and it?s gone.
Just look around you, let?em prove your wrong
There?s always something else you can lose,
but it?s, yours ?til it?s gone, and it?s, yours ?til it?s gone
You blink and it?s gone.
