Someplace Else Tomorrow

Life. It isn't easy with no happy ever after.
Smiles fading, friends not staying, temporary laughter.
I pray for help, but still I fall, no matter what I do.
But if happiness is momentary, maybe pain is too.
I lie awake and dream of change, to be the real me,
And stand before the world and let them see what they will see.
I want it quick and painless. Just a miracle right now.
But to temptation's will I often find that I will bow.
In those dark moments of grief and shame, buried 'neath the sorrow,
Comfort comes in knowing I'll be someplace else tomorrow.
See, there's this lie within my mind that tells me nothing's new.
But truth I know, and by Christ's strength, we'll see what I can do...
