A Word of Encouragement

For my dear friend, bombarded with troubles, who is just praying for it all to stop for a while. Don't crawl into your hole, darlin.

=====

"Hush" by Waterdeep

When you feel like the days just drone on and on and on
and you feel like the nights are quickly gone

and on the inside your heart is gaping wide
and on the inside you feel like no one's on your side
well, I am

When you thought you could rest, but you found out you were wrong
And there's another need another battle
another one more thing that comes along

and on the inside
you hear the fall but you hate the falling sound
and on the inside
you can't pick another broken piece up off the ground
well I know

CHORUS
Hush little baby don't say a word
Daddy's gonna buy you a great big heaven to rest in
He's bought it with blood and put the seal in your heart
it'll give you the hope you need to get up and start again

when all the things you thought you left behind are still hanging on
and everything you try to do right ends up all wrong

and on the inside everyone else seems basically fine
but on the inside even they won't let go of the dead and cling to what's alive
well I AM

Hush little baby don't say a word
Daddy's gonna buy us a great big heaven to rest in
He's bought it with blood and put the seal in our hearts
it'll give us the hope we need to get up and start again
