I always make an effort



I always make an effort

No matter how difficult or extremely uncomfortable my life becomes,
Even when my best isn't good enough, and all I do goes unnoticed,

I always make an effort

The days that I can't seem to shake that anxious and weary feeling,
When the ones that are supposed to be there unconditionally,
They fade away, just as day turns to night

I always make an effort

Even when I feel I'm down to the wire,
My mind weakens as I grow tired

I always make an effort
