A tale of hope in a world of despair.
Hi I'm , A.K.A. . You can listen to a mix of songs listed under both bands by
I've been playing guitar and writing songs for a few years now. I don't have a band yet, and most of the songs I've written I've recorded solo with one of my acoustic guitars. As far as effects, I mostly use just a little compression and noise reduction...so these recordings sound pretty much as it would if I were playing live in the room with you.
Story behind the song
This is the song that started it all. I've had some bad days when there wasn't much hope. I found myself saying "I think maybe I can make it just one more day" . Suddenly this song was in my head, almost as though it was being written, not by me, but through me. I knew then that I wanted to write music.
The song has evolved a little as I've gained new skills, but it's from the same place in the heart. The Message is simple...Don't Give up, Never give up. As far as I'm concerened, if even one soul can take comfort from the fact that there is someone out there who's been there and understands; then all of the sorrow I've ever known is worth the seeds of hope I've sown.
Lyrics
I think maybe I can make it through one more day
I've got to try things a different way
If I hold out, just long enough,
This ol' life of mine has got to change
Maybe if I can make it through just one more night
then I'll get my chance to set things right
I think, maybe I can, make it through just,
One more day... just one more day
I find myself in an empty room at nights
or watching the road reflect my headlights
My heart's been telling me things I don't understand
Thinking about the things I want to be
and what I've done and where it's gotten me
Could my life be part of a master plan?
At times my life is so cold and lonely
all I want is my one and only
But I, I don't know what to say
I just tell myself, I've got to be strong
I'm loosing my grip, but I've gotta hold on
Just a little bit longer, things will go my way
I think maybe I can make it through one more day
I've got to try things a different way
If I hold out, just long enough,
This ol' life of mine has got to change
Maybe if I can make it through just one more night
then I'll get my chance to set things right
I think, maybe I can, make it through just,
One more day... just one more day
I turn on the television, sex, violence, and pain,
Hold on for the weather, up next more rain
and I ....I just turn it off again
and in the news, Death, War, Murder, Rape
Little children dying, politicans preaching hate
why are we fighting when I sure could use a friend?
At times I think I'm gonna go insane
or maybe I'll be happy if I don't complain
it seems everybody knows what's best for me, even you.
and I get so scared, my life will go by
never do the thingsI wanted, it will be time to die
can't you feel it too?
I think maybe WE can make it through one more day
We've got to try things a different way
I'f we hold out, just long enough,
this whole world has just got to change.
Maybe if we can make it through just one more night
then we'll get our chance to set things right
I think, maybe we can, make it through just,
One more day... just one more day
