We do our best
|
We stay in step
|
As time goes marching by
|
But there's something wrong
|
We don't start living
|
Until we almost die
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
|
And the universe listened
|
|
Well, I was born
|
A silver thorn
|
On a mid-west rose
|
I found out fast
|
Love is last
|
And it comes and goes
|
I made a deal
|
Hearts to steal
|
They will know my name
|
I'll pay the price
|
Any price
|
Just give me the fame
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
A perfect song
|
My love wrong
|
So I ache the dark
|
A hero's close
|
The story goes on
|
But I hate the part
|
I chose to fall
|
Destroy it all
|
But I will rise again
|
I believe in love
|
Please send me love
|
And I will try again
|
|
[Chorus x2]
|
|
Remove the dark
|
Heal my heart
|
Make my body whole
|
I found my angels
|
Found my spirit
|
Guess I found my soul
|
Teach me how
|
Show me now
|
This light has taken me
|
I'm not ashamed
|
Help me explain
|
This awakening
|
|
[Chorus x2]
|
