LYRICS OF BRIGHTER – Erik Kjelland

It’s not that easy just to turn around and face the day.

You heard the news now you’re life is going to change.

Inside your mind there is a sea of fear and pain
You know the little things will never be the same



Smiles seem to fade, they’re smaller each day

I think you should know

We are all stars, everybody falls sometimes

How you stand up, and get there

Makes you stronger and brighter

This brand of torture takes the cover off your nerves

Pick up the phone and get the help that you deserve

A friend to hold you when your sun can’t seem to shine
All of the answers to the questions in your mind

And the road won’t seem fair, but I’ll always be there

I think you should know

We are all stars, everybody falls sometimes

How you stand up, and get there

Makes you stronger and brighter

Now please remember that you still have a life

We’ll put down our fears, we’ll stand up and fight

Its your life just take it, here’s my hand we’ll make it

And know it will all be alright

Your eyes cannot see what you mean to me

I think you should know

We are all stars, everybody falls sometimes

How you stand up, and get there
Makes you stronger and brighter

We are all stars, everybody falls sometimes

How you stand up, and get there

Makes you stronger and brighter


I am thrilled to be part of this project working with the MSAA team. Sadly more than a couple of retail outlets want 40% of the CD cost, modestly set at $10.00 Everybody Falls is a great music CD and stands up as a quality recording with other mainstream music who usually charge $17.99.

Thank you for your help and support with this valuable project. The funds raised are helping those with MS. Through MRI financial assistance, equipment distribution including cooling equipment for those with heat senstive MS, a helpline 1-800-532-7667 and more. Visit www.msaa.com and review the programs and services or to make a donation.
