Couldn't it be easier
If I told you how I feel
Or would he be easier
To bottle everything up inside

Tell no one
Show no emotion
But on a brave front
And never surrender

The journey is long
And cold and so difficult
Many never make it
Back to their families
Like they cared anyway

The long road ahead
Is harder than it seems
Mile after mile
Going nowhere
Staying in the same place
