Erin Elizabeth Barker - It Doesn't Have to End Here Lyrics

There were times in my life
I just wanted to die
Chasing that high
Just getting by
I felt as though
I just couldn't go
On one more day
Living that way
No solution in sight
Losing the fight
Living a lie
Why even try
The easier cup
Is just giving up
I have to remind
Myself all the time
It doesn't have to end here
Doesn't have to end here
Don't throw it all away
There's a better way
Don't abandon your dreams
It's not what it seems
You've gotten this far
And fought so hard
It doesn't have to end here
Then there are times
I'm glad I'm alive
Glad I survived
Rejected the lie
Songs I've not sung
Things I haven't done
A race that's half run
Can't be undone
We all get to choose
To give up and lose
Or pick ourselves up again
It doesn't have to end here
Doesn't have to end here
Don't throw it all away
There's a better way
Don't abandon your dreams
It's not what it seems
You've gotten this far
And fought so hard
It doesn't have to end here
Cause once it is done
Your pain isn't gone
You just pass it on
To everyone
They'll all ask why
And have a good cry
Say their goodbyes
Go on with their lives
Then you'll just be
A sad memory
That's all you'll ever be
It doesn't have to end here
Doesn't have to end here
Don't throw it all away
There's a better way
Don't abandon your dreams
It's not what it seems
You've gotten this far
And fought so hard
It doesn't have to end here
It doesn't have to end here
