What I Can Do

I see your faded picture
Beneath the metal frame
I try to take it out
But it's always the same
My hands start to clamp up
And my mind starts to fade
It's just another bad day
Happening all over again

The rain has to stop at some point
You can't generate these tears
It's like you're understanding
But you're lost in your peers
I'm struggling to find a way through
But it's hard to say
There's nothing I can do

The alarm doesn't ring
And I miss the last train
My boss always asks me
Who I am again
It's only the morning
And I feel it sinking in
That nothing's gonna change
From the ditch I'm standing in

The rain has to stop at some point
You can't generate these tears
It's almost like I'm trying
To try to hide these fears
I'm struggling to find a way through
But it's hard to say
There's nothing that I can do
But get out the way

I tried to find something inside
But my pride wouldn't let me
My dignity left me
And another stage
So confidence went too
Hate settled in and
Happiness disappeared
It's funny how life can make you sound weird
But I know it gets better
When the sky becomes clearer

The rain seems to stop by itself
And the people start to disperse
I finally found what is right
But this person I can't miss
So I'm saving all I have for love
And I'm showing that I can be tough
It's just you don't know how I feel
And it's almost like I know
What I can do.
