-
I wake up in the morning with the pillow on the floor—
My feet are under a cushion and my blankets aren’t used.
Nothing’s the way it should be;
Life is a disaster.
I’m on the phone with my manager, procrastinating—
Not wanting to say that I can’t handle the job—
Not wanting to say that I’m not good enough—
I really should pull through.
Everything’s out of place; I know we’ve got nothing left.
No one knows quite how we feel; hope is such a strange asset.
I know I’m not the only one who feels this way.
They wake up on the wrong side of the bed every time.
Their world has turned upside down like mine;
They’ve just run out of hope.
But never fear ’cause you’re not alone.
You’re not alone and someone cares.
I know your pain, and I’ll fight with you.
I’ll fight ’cause I know you feel that
Everything’s out of place; I know we’ve got nothing left.
No one knows quite how we feel; hope is such a strange asset.
But we’re not completely broken—
We still walk on the Earth.
Although it is such a strange asset,
We still have hope.
I know how you feel, and you know how I—
You know how I fight to alleviate the pain of others;
It’s all I’m good for anyway.
You know I’ll do anything… but do you know—?
Someone stronger than me can take the pain—
Someone who would die just to see you smile.
Someone who could take it all away;
Jesus Christ can take your pain.
He’ll walk with you in the pain of this world,
He’ll be with you through the misery,
Even if you can’t see Him,
He watches over you, even though it seems
Everything’s out of place; it seems that we’ve got nothing left.
Someone knows just how we feel; hope is such a strong asset.
Christ will turn your life around; He’ll give you a better view.
He knows exactly how you feel; hope is such a strong asset.
Nothing more is out of place; you just need to pull through.
We all know how you have felt; hope is such a strong asset.
