Little Victories

When I look up the sky is falling
 The signs of warning clearly drawn
 So many of us here are drifting out to sea
 Keep my head down to go on
 Little victories
 I know you need one
 Little victories
 In my hometown and family circles
 They seem unsure and un-empowered
 Oh, they don't understand and you can't help that
 Though you can love so hard, that never comes back
 Till you just can't take it for one more hour
 Little victories
 I know you need one
 Little victories
 I know it hurt sometimes to look around
 The sameness of it beats you down
 And the best seems all behind
 Before you start
 Little victories
 Oh, I know you need one
 Little victories of the heart
 Now as we face our uncertain future
 Looking on uncharted seas
 We see the tear that runs along the curtain
 You step right through, you stand with me
 Little victories
 Everybody needs some
 Little victories
 Though it hurt sometimes to look around
 Blindness only keeps you down
 The best meal lie beyond this present and past
 The sky they open, the waters part
 Little victories
 I know you need one
 Little victories of the heart
