Worst of Times

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When's it gonna let up? (when's it gonna, wait) I just gotta take my time (take my time) Digging through the shadows (diggin' through the, wait) I'm just looking for a torch to light (ayy) I got no direction (I got no di-whoa) So I found a place to hide (place to hide) No answer to the question (no answer to the, wait) Is there anything left inside? (ayy-oh) I just want to see the end of this eternal turmoil in my mind (ayy-oh, ayy-oh, oh, oh) (Ayy-oh, oh, oh) I see the other side and I will try to fight despite the turning tide (wah, wah, wah, wah, ayy-oh) (Oh-ayy-oh) (Inside) [Chorus] It's the worst of times, I know It's hard to be here, I know That's why I never see you with a smile, I know Haven't seen it in a while, I know It's a curse, You been searching for a sign, I know It's not where you wanna be, I hope That peace appears in your mind (I know) But in the meantime (I know), I know it might be over soon [Post-Chorus] Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-ayy-oh Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-ayy-oh (ooh) Whoa, whoa, whoa-oh, whoa Whoa, whoa, whoa-oh, oh-ayy-oh Oh-ayy-oh (ha!) [Verse 2] Think about a time when You could find a silver lining Grasping joy throughout your lifespan Inner peace would be divine and, oh Think about a time when (think about a time when) Chirping echos through the sirens (chirping echos through the sirens) You could cackle through the crying (you could cackle through the crying) Smiling never feels like lying, oh (smiling never feels like lying) Think about it, whoa Bloody knuckles hit the floor Everybody seemed so sure I was down and out it was difficult Think about it, whoa Taken all I could absorb But I'm trying to explore Searching for a time that ain't miserable (whoa) [Chorus 2] It's hard to be here, I know That's why I never see you with a smile, I know Haven't seen it in a while, I know It's a curse, You been searching for a sign, I know It's not where you wanna be, I hope That peace appears in your mind (I know) But in the meantime (I know), I know it might be over soon [Post-Chorus] Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-ayy-oh Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-ayy-oh (ooh) Whoa, whoa, whoa-oh, whoa Whoa, whoa, whoa-oh, oh-ayy-oh Oh-ayy-oh (Ha!) [Outro] I know I know
