It Never Gets Easier

By Bruce Clifford

It never gets easier
It's always the same
I can't count on you too much
But I can count on the rain

It never gets easier
It's about passing the blame
I wish you would speak to me
I have so much to say

The seasons come and go
The moments ebb and flow
I will always want to know
I want to know

Chemical reactions
Noise and satisfaction
The history of man
The ultimate and final plan
The places one must stand
Give me your outstretched hand

It never gets easier
It's always the same
I wish I could count on you
Will things ever change
