[English]

Some days I'm feelin' like I

Can't win, can't get it right and it

Don't matter how hard I try

Today is not my day

When it feels like I'm going crazy

And it looks like nothing's changing

Come sun, come rainy day

You are still the same

In the dark, in the light

In the morning and night (morning and night)

In the good, in the hurt

In the places I hide (places I hide)

When I rise, when I fall

You'll be there through it all

At the start, at the end

In the center of the center of it

Some nights, I lay awake and I

Can't push these thoughts away

I'm worried where I'm gonna go

Where I'm gonna be

Are you gonna be there for me?

When it feels like the doors are closing

Gotta trust that you're doing something

Come sun, come rainy day

You are all I need

In the dark, in the light

In the morning and night (morning and night)

In the good, in the hurt

In the places I hide (places I hide)

When I rise, when I fall

You'll be there through it all

At the start, at the end

In the center of the center of it

There will be days I will forget

Everything you've done for me

But when I go back there again

I'm reminded

In the dark, in the light

In the morning, in the night

In the dark, in the light

In the morning and the night (morning and the night)

In the good, in the hurt

In the places I hide (places I hide)

When I rise, when I fall

You'll be there through it all

At the start, at the end

In the center of the center of it, yeah

The center of it all (morning and night)

The center of it all (places I hide)

In the loss, in the win

In the beauty and the sin

At the start, at the end

In the center of the center of it

...
