The Limes of Life

Sometimes life sucks you dry Sometimes the sun plays hide and seek, but it cheats and hides outside where the clouds won't stop raining on you... soaking you to the bone But sometimes you just have to suck it up Sometimes the trustworthy lie, Sometimes friends... just aren't there... sorry Yep, Life's hard, Sometimes your lost and you lose Sometimes people let you down, and they aren't careful about it. They drop you. But hey, bones heal. Sometimes you wish you would stop being stupid and learn from yourself Sometimes others hold you over a ledge, and you let them Sometimes you wish you could take a step in the right direction, instead of being dragged by your ankles back to the start But sometimes... you just make lemonade, even when life laughs and gives you limes.
