The Will - Behind the Song
You may not have the will to die, but can you find the will to live?
A few years ago there was a period where, among other things, I was really struggling to feel the pleasure and hope in life. So, I sought help which made a huge difference. This song is a reflection on those times and an encouragement to the “me” of that moment; look at how far you’ve come and trust that you will go further.
Lyrics
Somewhere down the line the fun stopped being easy
The passion so hard to find
Remote and illusive
Blue sky clouding over
Though you don’t have the will to die
You struggle with the will to live
Break through
There’s a younger you who would be so proud
If he only knew the things you’ve done
Who he’d become
Break through
There’s an older you looking back on now
Feeling gratitude for the man you save
By being brave
Somewhere down the line the bright became an effort
Denying the dim inside
And hope became hollow
Lost faith in tomorrow
You may not have the will to die
But can you find the will to live
Break through…
