Living Ain't Easy
Navigating Heartache: The Naked Truth in 'Living Ain't Easy'
Lyrics
Standing in the station waiting for the southbound train and praying for sunrise
Standing in the station, waiting for the southbound train and hoping for a new beginning at sunrise.
To take me away
Expressing the desire to be taken away from the current situation.
I hear the rain fall softly on the shelter where I stand, I hear you voice calling
Listening to the rain in a shelter, hearing a familiar voice, feeling a sense of control.
It's all in my hands
Emphasizing personal responsibility and control over the situation.
But I must believe that what I'm doing is right for me
Believing in the rightness of one's actions, despite challenges.
I just couldn't go on with something I knew that wasn't meant to be
Acknowledging the difficulty of continuing with something not meant to be.
Help me, help me
Pleading for assistance or guidance.
Take me away to the cold light of day
Desiring escape to a new beginning in the cold light of day.
When you turn to look at me
Expressing the realization that time is running out for meaningful communication.
I know that there's no time to say what I wanna say
Feeling the urgency to express unspoken thoughts and emotions.
Please believe me girl when I say to you, it's not the way I want it to be
Asking for belief in a difficult truth, expressing dissatisfaction with the current situation.
But baby it's too late to change what is happening
Recognizing the inevitability of a situation that cannot be changed.
It's just that living ain't easy
Stating the general difficulty of life's challenges.
Let's close our eyes and imagine a place where lovers can be friends
Imagining an ideal place where love can flourish without pain and deception.
Without the hurt, the tears, the pain and the fallacy
Describing the hope for a love without negative emotions and falsehoods.
But when the loving has gone, there's nowhere you can run
Highlighting the inevitability of facing emotions and inner turmoil when love fades.
From the feelings you keep inside
Emphasizing the difficulty of escaping internal feelings after a breakup.
Oh baby don't hold back, you know that I'm leaving you
Expressing the decision to leave, urging not to hold back.
It's just that living ain't easy
Reiterating the general difficulty of life.
Living ain't easy
Repeating the idea that living is challenging.
Now living ain't easy
Reiterating the statement that life is not easy.
