I dont jones for nothing
Cause thats a waste
Waste of space in my frontal lobe and
I just sit, deal with it, dont have a fit
Do you know what Im sayin?
I just get as down as I can
Dont look to relief from a troubled young man
Just take a piece
Sometimes it sucks
Oh I'm not too sure if I can do this on my own guys
Like I'm thinking maybe we should form a support group
Or perhaps a church sponsored youth group
Oh and then then I say
I looked the other way
I changed my point of view
And heres what I do
This too shall pass
This too shall pass
This too shall pass
This..
All the good times, all the bad times
Face it bro, they all will pass
Your problems will seem inconsequential and trivial
When you realize one thing
Were just a speck of dirt on this golf ball
Called earth
So get stupid and sing
And then I feel stupid for saying it in the first place
Cause this aint no woosies anonymous, right chad
That's right (Chad)
Chad asays no
So, fuck it up
Oh, and then and then I see
I looked the other way
I changed my point of view
And heres what I do
This song is passed
So put that in your pipe and smoke it
I achieved so much in life
But I’m an amateur in love
My bank account is doing just fine
But my emotions are bankrupt
My body is nice and strong
But my heart is in a million pieces
When the sun is shining so am I
But when the night falls so does my tears
Sometimes the beatings so loud in my heart
That I can barely tell our voices apart
Sometimes the fear is so loud in my head
That I can barely hear what God says
Then I hear a whisper that this too shall pass
I hear the angel’s whisper that this too shall pass
My ancestors whisper that this day one day will be the past
So I walk in faith that this too shall pass
The one that loved me the most
Turned around and hurt me the worse
I’m doing my best to move on
But the pain just keeps singing me songs
My head and my heart are at war
Cause love ain't happening the way I wanted
Feel like I’m about to break down
Can’t hear the light at the end of the tunnel
So I pray for healing in my heart
To be put back together what is torn apart
And I pray for quiet in my head
That I can hear clearly what God says
Then I hear the whisper that this too shall pass
I hear the Angels whisper that this too shall pass
My ancestors whisper that this day will one day be the past
So I walk in faith that this too shall pass
All of sudden I realize
That it only hurts worse to fight it
So I embrace my shadow
And hold on to the morning light
This Too Shall Pass
This Too Shall Pass
This Too Shall Pass
This Too Shall Pass
This Too Shall Pass
This Too Shall Pass
I hear the angels whisper
that trouble don't have to last always
I hear the angels whisper
Even the day after tomorrow will one day be yesterday.
I hear my angels whisper.
I hear my angels whisper.
In the middle of the turbulence surrounding you
These trying times that are so hard to endure
In the middle of what seems to be your darkest hour
Hold fast your heart and be assured
This too shall pass, like every night that's come before it
He'll never give you more than you can bear
This too shall pass, so in this thought you be comforted
For it's in His hands, this too shall pass, oh yes
The Father knows the tears you cry before they fall
He feels your pain, His heart and yours are one
The Father knows that sorrow's heavy chains are strong
But with His strength, you'll overcome
For this too shall pass, like every night that's come before it
He'll never give you more than you can bear
This too shall pass, so in this thought you be comforted
For it's in His hands, this too shall pass
So set your eyes, set them on the mountain
And lift your hands up to the sky
And let His arms of love surround you
Let Him take you to the other side
This too shall pass, like every night that's come and gone before it
I'm so glad, He never gives [Incomprehensible] more than you can bear
This too shall pass, so in this thought you be comforted
For it's in his hands, this too shall pass
It's in His hands, this too shall pass
My heart's a scar now
Thick skin will never mend
I've learned my lessons well
I've felt destruction
The harsh reality
Eveyone leaves you in the end
So tear the memories Burn them all
(There is nothing you can say that can change it)
I take them all back
This is final
(I have severed all the ties and am moving on)
There's no forever
You're all you'll ever have
My hates eclipsing all
This too shall pass
This too shall pass
They'll leave you hollow
Stranded no hand to hold
A bleak epiphany
I take them all back
I take them all back
I've achieved so much in life, but I'm an amateur in love
My bank account is doing just fine,
But my emotions are bankrupt
My body is nice and strong, but my heart is in a million pieces
When the sun is shining, so am I
But when night falls, so do my tears
Sometimes the fear is so loud in my heart
That I can barely tell our voices apart
Sometimes the fear is so loud in my head,
That I can barely hear what God says
But then I hear a whisper that, 'This, too, shall pass'
I hear the angels whisper that, 'This, too, shall pass'
My ancestors whisper that this day will one day be the past
So I walk in faith that this, too, shall pass
The one that loved me the most
Turned around and hurt me the worst
I'm doing my best to move on
But the pain just keeps singing me a song
My head and my heart are at war
'Cause love ain't happening the way I wanted
Feel like I'm about to break down
Can't view the light at the end of the tunnel
It's when I pray for healing in my heart
To be put back together, what is torn apart
And I pray for quiet in my head
That I can hear clearly what God says
Then I hear a whisper that, 'This, too, shall pass'
I hear the angels whisper that, 'This, too, shall pass'
My ancestors whisper that this day will one day be the past
So I walk in faith that this, too, shall pass
All of a sudden I realize that it only hurts worse to fight it
So I embrace my shadow, and hold onto the morning light
This, too, shall pass... This, too, shall pass...
This, too, shall pass
This, too, shall pass
This, too, shall pass... This, too, shall pass...
This, too, shall pass
I hear the angels whisper that trouble don't have to last always
I hear the angels whisper:
Even the day after tomorrow will one day be yesterday
I hear my angels whisper
I hear my angels whisper: This, too, shall pass.
Got to get something done today
Give accomplishment a shot
Might not have a full palette to use
But I'm gonna paint with the colors I've got
There're your hopes and ideals you embrace
Then there's what's staring you in the face
Sorrowful times are here but they won't last
'Cause this too shall pass
Feeling like a lazy tub o' lard
Rajneesh Jr. gave me his business card
Think I'll take the personality test
To document my fine mess this far
There're your hopes and dreams you embrace
Then there's what's staring you in the face
First place man will one day roll in last
'Cause this too shall pass
Better get on out to the starting line
They're coming soon
They're gonna fix it in time
I just want to get what's mine
Not a fortune gonna just, gonna just, love life
And this too shall pass
Do what you got to do to find a cure
For the things that make you feel so impure
Just how I don't know for sure
Sometimes misery has a strange allure
There're your hopes and ideals you embrace
Then there's what's staring you in the face
Sorrowful times are here but they won't last
'Cause this too shall pass
There are your hopes and dreams you embrace
Then there's what's staring you in the face
Sorrowful times are here but they won't last
"Not again," I scream
Over-analyzing everything
The circle of us
Won't break it's pattern
Won't cease, cause
I am your stubborn hypocritical lover
Guarded by thorns of my past
You have been wounded, bled out, anger gushing
And none of us thought it would last
The winds of your ego
The waves of my tears
Made the most perfect almighty storm that we've seen this year
But experience gathered we've learned from our past
So don't worry, darling
Cause this too shall pass
Soul-bruising, I look at you
Accusingly cause I am black and blue
Emotional fist
You are the only man who makes me feel like this
I am your weakness, I am your protector
But who will protect you from me
The damage is obvious, patch me together
Loosen your grip boy, I can't breathe
The winds of your ego
The waves of my tears
Made the most perfect almighty storm that we've seen this year
But experience gathered we've learned from our past
So don't worry, darling
You know you can't keep letting it get you down
And you can't keep dragging that dead weight around
Is it really all that much to lug around
Better run like hell when you hit the ground
When the morning comes
When the morning comes
Can't stop those kids from dancing but why would you want to
Especially when you are already getting good?
'Cause when your mind don't move then your knees don't bend
But don't go blaming the kids again
When the morning comes
When the morning comes
When the morning comes
When the morning comes
When the morning comes
When the morning comes
Let it go, this too shall pass
Let it go, this too shall pass
(Let it go, this too shall pass)
You know you can't keep letting it get you down
No, you can't keep letting it get you down
(Let it go, this too shall pass)
Oh, is it really all that much to lug around
And you can't keep letting it get you down
When the morning comes
Oh, you can't keep letting it get you down
No, you can't keep letting it get you down
(When the morning comes)
Oh, you can't keep letting it get you down
No, you can't keep letting it get you down
(When the morning comes)
Oh, you can't keep letting it get you down
No, you can't keep letting it get you down
(When the morning comes)
Oh, you can't keep letting it get you down
No, you can't keep letting it get you down
This too shall pass away
The longest night becomes the day
Hold up your head and say
This too shall pass away
Sometimes I'm frighten of what I'll discover
Sometimes I feel like I'm always passed over
Sometimes I think I won't find my place in the sun
When there's no refugee in sleeping
When I am so close to weeping
Then I remember the truth I was told by someone
This too shall pass away
The longest night becomes the day
Hold up your head and say
This too shall pass away
Whoa this too shall pass away
Whoa this too shall pass away
Sometimes you tell me you're weary in spirit
Sometimes you cry out and no one can hear it
People you trust can sometimes be strangely unkind
Though you are caught up in grieving
Though you could give up believing
Don't you lose sight of the answer you helped me to find
This too shall pass away
The longest night becomes the day
Hold up your head and say
This too shall pass away
This too shall pass away
Out of the darkness whoa, whoa, whoa
The clouds will always part the moment faith is in your heart
So let me hear you say
This too shall pass away
Shall pass away
This too shall pass away
If you believe the truth will set you free
So let me hear you let me hear you say
This too shall pass away
Remember truth was told by someone
This too shall pass away
And you're weary in spirit
God will hear it
If you believe it will be free
[Verse 1:]
This black day, fade away,
I'm out of mind, carried away.
Unimpressed, clean this mess,
This is not me, I confess.
Now we all fight our demons, we all know the pain.
Write it off, it's just been one of those days.
It's not forever, but it feels a lifetime.
Hold on, tomorrow you'll find, or fall now.
[Verse 2:]
Lost my ground, let you down,
For all I've done, I'm less than proud.
World's at end, think again,
Wakeup it's all in your head.
While I can understand and it doesn't seem fair,
Think of the others, you can't even compare.
That's life so take it or leave it behind.
Hold on, tomorrow you'll find...
[Chorus:]
You're not alone, fending for yourself.
Been there, God knows that we all need the help.
So don't let go, though it's on your mind,
Know this too shall pass in time.
Is it picking at you day and night?
Do you stare through the emptiness?
Do the days fly by like the wind blows
Leaving you breathless
You've done it now
You've tied your noose
You've got no reason trying anymore
Because it's no use
Do you wake up to the sun that never shines on you?
Do you pray for better days to this god who's never smiled on you?
Do you wish each day was your last?
This too shall pass
Don't get buried by your past
When it comes back around
Just leave your ghosts
Leave them sleeping
Don't take the sunrise for granted
Don't let frustration pull you down
Turn away from that rearview mirror
Look straight ahead
Don't throw your life away
when it's windy in the morning
and your cloudy all day
when the night arrives at last
it just won't go away
when you're eyes are sick with wonder and your heart is in a cast
This too, shall pass.
When the city turns to limp
when you're waiting for a train
when she welcomes you with pity
in half an inch of rain
when you're playing at 10: 30
and if anyone should ask
This too, Shall pass.
This western call
This too shall fall
These northern skies
These too shall rise
This way you feel
This too shall heal
This hour glass
This too shall pass.
She loves me when i'm lazy and she loves me when i'm wild
she loves me when i'm hazy and she loves me when i'm a child
We figured out how to make a good thing last
But this too, shall pass
Lovely words, lovely sounds
Lovely people walking around
Lovely thoughts, lovely crowd
Lovely people walking around
You don't fit in, you don't stand out
This too shall pass
So please - stop crying
This too shall pass
So please - stop lying
Lovely music, lovely rain
Lovely people walking in pain
Lovely weather, lovely skein
Lovely people walking in pain
You don't fit in, you don't stand out
This too shall pass
So please - stop crying
This too shall pass
So please - stop lying
This too shall pass
So please - stop fighting
This too shall pass (so please)
Give up, let go, start flying
You've built yourself a pretty house
Inside your heart, you've locked them out
And now you dance with pretty thoughts
Inside your head, in quiet rooms
The fire made for seeing bright
Is spreading around inside your house
And burning down your pretty thoughts
Inside your heart, you've been locked in
(Give up, let go, give up, let go...)
This too shall pass
So please - start flying
This too shall pass
So please - start flying
There's a heaviness inside your heart
A weight you can't describe
A feeling that you just can't hide
There's a weariness within your mind
The thoughts don't come too clear
You feel as though I'm not so near to you
But remember I said I'd never leave
Trust in My Word and believe I am here
Forever, I'll never let you go
This is all you really need to know
I've heard every prayer I've seen every tear
When I seemed so distant, I've always been near
And I know the future, and I know the past
So believe me when I say; believe me when I say
This too, this too shall pass.
I know sometimes it's hard for you to put your trust in
To place your faith in what you cannot see
I know sometimes you feel that I'm a million miles away
But listen to your heart and hear me say:
I've heard every prayer - I've seen every tear
When I seemed so distant, I've always been near
And I know the future and I know the past
So believe me when I say; believe me when I say
Woke up this morning with the years I've spent
Hanging heavy on my mind.
At times I see
So much in me
I wish I'd left behind.
But the one thing I've learned
As the years have turned,
And they sure have traveled fast.
I don't have to stay where I am today because
This too shall past.
CHORUS
This too shall pass.
This too shall pass.
And the tears that fall like raindrops now
Will finally dry at last.
This too shall past.
Sometimes I'm laughing with a crowd of friends,
And still I feel alone.
There's a place inside
Full of tears I hide
That I've only cried alone.
But I know that He's near,
And I know He hears,
And I know these tears won't last.
This pain today
Will be swept away because
This too shall pass.
