This, Too, Shall Pass (continued)

"This Too Shall Pass" by India Arie

I've achieved so much in life, but I'm an amateur in love
My bank account is doing just fine but my emotions are bankrupt
My body is nice and strong, but my heart is in a million pieces


When the sun is shining so am I, butwhen night falls,
so do my tears Sometimes the beat is so loud in my heart
that I can barely tell the voices apart


Sometimes the fear is so loud in my head
that I can barely hear what God says,
but then I hear a whisper that this too shall pass,
I hear the angels whisper that this too shall pass


my ancestors whisper that this day will one day be the past
so I walk in faith that this too shall pass,
The one that loved me the most
turned around and hurt me the worst,


Been doing my best to move on
but the pain just keeps singing me songs
My head and my heart are at war
cause love ain't happening the way I want it,


Feel like I'm about to break down can't hear
the light at the end of the tunnel is when I pray
for healing in my heart bebe put back together
what is torn apart and I pray for quiet in my head
that I can hear clearly what GOD says
but then I hear a whisper that this too shall pass,
I hear the angels whisper that this too shall pass


my ancestors whisper that this day will one day be the past
so I walk in faith that this too shall pass
All of a sudden I realized that it only hurts
worse to fight it


So I embrace my shadow and hold on to the morning light
this too shall pass...
I hear the angels whisper that trouble don't have to last always,
I hear the angels whisper even the day after tomorrow
will one day be as today I hear my angels whisper,
I hear my angels whisper this too shall pass

"It'll Be Easier In The Morning" by the Hothouse Flowers

If the lonely night surrounds you
Yeah you're weighed down by gloom
No you don't like what it feels like
in Your dark and dirty room


It'll be easier in the morning
It'll be easier in the day
Sun will shine on through your window
We got light to lead the way


Looks like the bottle has run empty
Yeah your heart is torn and dry
Lord you don't like what it feels like
Your sad and lonely eyes


Looks like the highways never ending
Yeah your legs they feel like lead
Lord you're twisting yeah and turning
In your wide and lonely bed


It'll be easier in the morning
It'll be easier in the day
Sun will shine on through your window
We got light to lead the way


Looks like you got no one you can talk to
No one left to talk to
And your heart is torn'n'blue
Yeah you look in no direction
No direction...
I guess these words might pull you through


It'll be easier in the morning
It'll be easier in the day
Sun will shine on through your window
We got light to lead the way


It'll be easier in the morning
It'll be easier in the day
Sun will shine on through your window
We got light to lead the way
