Difficulties Arise

It's difficult to function In the midst of destruction Peace, come to us in time of need Give graciously, wave 'bye to greed Let me function all on my own Your devices are going to crumble...down... Get me out of this cage of alone Your malice chases away the humble...in this strange town... Peace gives graciously to the needy Chaos takes away hope from the greedy It's difficult to function in the midst of destruction It's not your fault I have lost my direction due to assumption Silence overthrows the ominous, nostalgic night Daylight dawns upon me with such luminous light Don't fence me in with your love again Follow my footsteps to the unknown; for I, alone, will find where you been Fade away the faithless hues of gray between us Know that we are together in this on the same bus Hatred will never shower down regret and distrust upon our love boat Shameful dread and sorrow will not be our tomorrow's raincoat It's difficult to function In the midst of affliction I'm marrying the utmost, marvelous joy in my aching heart before it shatters apart I'm divorcing the many disdainful and painful trains of thought from the start It's difficult to function In the midst of destruction If there really is a sweet heaven above, Will You shower upon us eternal love? It's complicated to figure a way out Of your desolate dungeon It's hard to make a difference, with no doubt, Under pressure times a dozen Difficulties arise...difficulties arise...lowering our highs Much like the brink of morning's radiant, yet resonating sunrise Saw it right through your eyes, in your moonlit, sunset eyes - The gracious truth beneath the hideous lies...boy, how time flies The lies of society are sugarcoated with lullabies and goodbyes But, still, we will share the lovely unity of our low-deprived highs Finally, God answered our prayers and why's He answered each and every one of our cries Difficulties arise as we try to function in our hopelessness We cannot avoid the fact that we are always together in this
