give yourself a chance
entertain this gift
create your own path
we've all been set adrift

we all want to feel alive
want the happiness to be real
we have to survive
there's no better deal

have some faith this time
justify your right to live
we are all the true divine
almost out of time to give

make me believe your love
forgive me if I go inside
you're all up above
I might just run and hide

forgive my stubborn pride
it's the mask I sometimes wear
to keep the fear inside
every wound has it's own tear

with every drop of earth I dig
the path to learn again
with every inch of pain
I turn and start again
