Going Through Something

Everybody's going, going through something No one has this life all figured out Everybody's tired of feeling alone here I'm just desperate enough to shout it out Mercy was just a girl with the world on a string With straight A's and high praise, such a pure seventeen Until one day, the birds and the bees change her history Pablo just lost his dad to the unnatural grave Now his hero is gone and it's his time to save Can he be what his family needs him to be? Sarah's husband is gone, now she's pushing back debt With a job and three kids, there's no time for regret In the land of the free she just clings to survival John is back off the track, now he's high off his train As his friends and his family are praying for rain Looks like only a breakdown can lead to revival Everybody's going, going through something No one has this life all figured out Everybody's tired of feeling alone here I'm just desperate enough to shout it out Nicky fights with disease while he sings for the choir All the voices around him say that he's admired For a strength that most day's he'd trade to be well, now Sally Loo's at the church with a smile on her face No one knows that she feels like she's falling from grace They can't see all the demons making life hell now Everybody's going, going through something No one has this life all figured out Everybody's tired of feeling alone here I'm just desperate enough to shout it out David's down on his luck, now he's begging for change As I walked by I realized that we were the same We all start out, naked and crying for love I know everyone here can contribute a verse These are cards that we're dealt, for better or worse Now it's time, that we look around and above Everybody's going, going through something No one has this life all figured out There's no need for us to feel alone here I'm just desperate enough to shout it out
