At a Time Like This

It’s at a time like this That I try to convince myself To stay positive and enthused But its one of those days When I’m feeling so confused Better if I just stay in bed And take my time And think of nothing instead My thoughts like spaghetti that swamp my mind Will slowly start To unravel and unwind Things start to make sense Growing in confidence To face the days of come what may Leaving the doubts of yesterday It’s at a time like this That the prayers and the wishes That I’ve secretly said Won’t be heard They’ll just stay in my head But the fact that I’ve said them Seems to help with the problem It’s at a time like this When I remember That a part of my life is now over A part of my life is now gone Time to turn the page Leaving behind whatever went wrong It’s at a time like this Though that part of my life that is over I’m glad that now I can clearly see Through my pain and forgiving I can move forward and believe in A happier future for me.
