And I saw it coming

I saw emptiness and tragedy

And I felt like running

So far away

But knew I had to stay

And I know when I'm older

I look back and I still feel the pain

I know I'll be stronger and I know I'll be fine

For the rest of my days

I've seen better days

Put my face in my hands

Get down on my knees and I pray to God

Hope he sees me through till the end

I noticed the smallest things

But I didn't notice the change

It was hot in the morning

Then it turned so cold, twas the end of the day

There was no condensation I just felt like I was in space

I needed my friends there I just turned around

They were gone without a trace

I've seen better days

Put my face in my hands

Get down on my knees and I pray to God

Hope he sees me through till the end

Now I have just started

And I won't be done till the end

There's nothing I have lost

That was once placed upon the palm of my hands

And all of these hard times

Have faded round the bend

Now that I'm wiser I cannot wait

Till I can help my friends

I've seen better days

Put my face in my hands

Get down on my knees and I pray to God

Hope he sees me through till the end

Seen better days

Put my face in my hands

Get down on my knees and I pray to God

Hope he sees me through till the end

Seen better
