Harder

Life may be crazy

And seem so out of control

But listen little baby

There’s so much you don’t know.



Though the storm seems hard in the moment

The sunshine is coming i know it

When it seems like no one’s there

Just look around. I’m right here.



You’ll never know how much you mean till you’re gone

How many fights you stepped between,

How many battles you have won.

You’ll never realize that the world was a better place

With your smiling face, to light up my day.

And Love, I know life was hard,

But life gets harder with you gone.



I think it’s crazy

That at fourteen you felt unshakeable

The world got to be too much

the pressure was un-takeable.



I wish i could’ve been right there

to hold your hands, dry your tears

I wish you would have know your needed now

right now.



And I can see the darkness in the world, reflecting,

You’re eyes were the greatest strength i’ve ever seen.

I’ve seen you smile, i’ve seen you laugh

I realized it was just an act,

but i prayed every day that your world would change.

and here you’d stay.

Cause life gets harder when you’re gone.



They tell me it’s not my fault

You’re in a better place.

They tell me that the world can’t change

from just one life.

But you were so capable,

through every obstacle

and now there is no one else

to call on.





You will change the world

Even without life

I know, I’ve seen your heart

Through your crystal eyes

And you never realized that you meant the world to me.

Turned my life upside down made me start to believe

You made a difference, love, even though you were fourteen

and now its crazy to think,

you thought you were nothing.

Crazy now to think

you finally got your wings…

And I know life’s hard

But it gets harder with you gone.
