Everybody Hurts by REM


When the day is long
and the night,
the night is yours alone,


when you're sure you've had enough
of this life,
well hang on.


Don't let yourself go,
everybody cries

and everybody hurts
sometimes.

Sometimes everything is wrong.
Now it's time to sing along.

When your day is night alone
(hold on, hold on)
if you feel like letting go,

Hold on...when you think you've had too much...
of this life, well hang on.

Everybody hurts.
Take comfort in your friends.


Everybody hurts.
Don't throw your hand.
Oh, no.
Don't throw your hand.

If you feel like you're alone
no, no, no,
you're not alone

If you're on your own
in this life,

the days and nights are long,
when you think you've had too much
of this life to hang on.


Well, everybody hurts
sometimes,
everybody cries.

And everybody hurts
sometimes.

And everybody hurts
sometimes.
everybody cries.


And everybody hurts
sometimes.
And everybody hurts sometimes


So, hold on,
hold on.
Hold on,


hold on.
Hold on, hold on.
Hold on,


hold on.

I LOVED, LOVED LOVED the pictures in this post. REM filmed the music video to this song in San Antonio when I was in middle school. An old friend of mine is in the video...the part where everyone gets out of their cars and walks on the bridge... what more can I say? Another fantastic post, Renee! ;)

Love,
Sarah

You know? It was a good cry...like an old movie kind of cry, so don't worry! It is always perfect the way life works! I'm back, I survived and have already blogged on about the whole experience today! Thanks for the visit :-)
