Half Empty

I've had my share of heartache.

I've been bruised and beaten down.

I've spent lonely nights with no relief.

I've put loved ones in the ground.

But I ain't never gone hungry,

I ain't been without a home,

and all those times I couldn't overcome,

I only thought I was alone.

I guess my hard times weren't so hard after all.

I've got friends that struggle,

a war in their own minds.

I wish they all could find the peace

that I have found in mine.

I might have gone crazy,

but I ain't never stayed for long,

and all those times I couldn't overcome,

I only thought I was alone.

I guess my hard times weren't so hard after all.

Sometimes I feel helpless,

but I ain't lived without love.
