dark times Video (MV)

Thirteen is hard enough
So busy growing up
Now you're sitting on a secret no one knows
You see him after school
He barely looks at you
'Cause you're both afraid that people might suppose

I'll see you in the mirror when you're older
For now just keep your head up on your shoulders

Life goes too fast
Heart breaks in two
Tough times don't last
Tough people do
So wipe those tears from your crying eyes
'Cause you only see the light shine in dark times

Eighteen you fall in love
You think you found the one
Then he calls you up to say there's someone else
Feels like the world's in flames
You give yourself the blame
'Cause the landing wasn't worth how hard you fell

I'll see you in the mirror when you're older
For now just keep your head up on your shoulders

Life goes too fast
Heart breaks in two
Tough times don't last
Tough people do
So wipe those tears from your crying eyes
'Cause you only see the light shine in dark times

Oh, in dark times
Oh, in dark times

We're twenty-seven now
Don't have it figured out
But at least no one can say we haven't grown
Scars turn to memories
They keep us company
But it's nice to know we're not in this alone

Life goes too fast
Heart breaks in two
Tough times don't last
Tough people do
So wipe those tears from your crying eyes
'Cause you only see the light shine
You only see the light shine in dark times
