      You know that cliche “you need to live in the moment”? I think that’s it. Don’t worry about past? Don’t stress about future. Numbness is not making it easier. Kindness helped me. Showing kindness to others even when I felt rotten dead inside. But only when I truly did it without expecting, even jokingly, that someone will do that for me in the future. Now I am here, still sad, but I am here now.

    Lyrics:
    Its a wonderful life, its a wonderful life
    Traversed in tears from the heavens
    My heart is a mellow drum, a mellow drum in fact
    Set alight by echoes of pain 24-7, 24-7
    I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
    I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
    You might not say that its a wonderful world
    And its a wonderful life
    And its a wonderful day
    Just as yesterday
    But I wont complain
    No I wont complain
    Though my good days are far gone
    They will surely come back one morn
    So I wont complain, no, no
    My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me
    And for those who hate me, the more you hate me
    The more you help me
    And for those who love me, the more you love me
    The more you hurt me
    When I go to bed in the night, I see some children in the light
    Fighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back
    And although I don't understand my dreams I know somewhere
    There is hope, theres is hope, somewhere there is hope
    I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
    I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
    You might not say that its a wonderful world
    And its a wonderful life
    And its a wonderful day
    Just as yesterday
    But I wont, complain
    I wont complain no, no,
    No, no, no, no, no
    No, no, no, no, no I won't complain, no I won't complain
    Though my good days are far gone
    They will surely come back one morn
    So I won't, I won't complain
    Though my good days are far gone
    They will surely come back one morn
    So I won't, I won't complain

It is my misfortune to have discovered him so late, but I am glad I did and to say it's a masterpiece is an understatement. The video, the music. The instrumentals and his vocals.

      Its true though, only those who truly love hurt can cause us real pain. Those who hate us, or inspire hate in us. They come and go. Their hate only strengthens our own resolve. But the pain of love and life is a precious pain. No enemy can compare to the loss of love. In a very unique way, its almost a silver lining.

    i discovered this song 2 years ago when i was going through one of the toughest phases of my life. i was diagnosed with severe depression before, got the help i needed and had made a pact with myself that ill never let myself go back to that place. So when this tough time came, this song was my saving grace, played it every morning. it reminded me not to give up but have hope, it gets better! and it did! mostly because i refused to complain!!
    dont dwell on the wrongs in your life, celebrate the good, focus on those, hope for better and EVERYDAY take small steps towards that "better." im not where i want to be yet,i dont have all i want or need, im struggling through this life thing just like the next person, but I WONT COMPLAIN coz surely, there are good days ahead. Thank you Benjamin :)

    I was looking for the lyrics, but I didn't find a comment so here we go!
    It's a wonderful life, its a wonderful life
    Traversed in tears from the heavens
    My heart is a mellow drum, a mellow drum in fact
    Set alight by echoes of pain twenty-four seven, twenty-four seven
    I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
    I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
    You might not say that it's a wonderful world
    And it's a wonderful life, and it's a wonderful day
    Just as yesterday
    But I won't complain, no I won't complain
    Though my good days are far gone
    They will surely come back one morn'
    So I wont complain
    My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me
    And for those who hate me, the more you hate me
    The more you help me
    And for those who love me, the more you love me
    The more you hurt me
    When I go to bed in the night, I see some children in the light
    Fighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back
    And although I don't understand my dreams
    I know somewhere, there is hope, there's hope, there is hope
    I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
    I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
    You might not say that it's a wonderful world
    And it's a wonderful life, and it's a wonderful day
    Just as yesterday
    But I won't complain, no I won't complain
    No no no no
    No no no no
    No I won't complain
    Though my good days are far gone
    They will surely come back one morn'
    So I won't complain
    Though my good days are far gone
    They will surely come back one morn'
    So I won't complain
    I won't complain

      ​@NinaBina75 In my eyes its more about accepting the knowledge that its *not* a wonderful life and coming to terms with the fact that you cannot be released from it without harming those closest to you ("And those who love me, the more you love me, the more you hurt me"). He seems to be expressing the knowledge that despite not understanding the point of his life that he has a responsibility to bear his own burdens ("I wont complain" is the name of the song after all) and to fight for the betterment of the future "I see some children in the light
      Fighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back"
