bury your secrets in a shallow grave
sit quietly and try to behave
but what's life if you're not living?
promises kept and promises given
it's you, in the moment, all that's real
and no one can tell you how you should feel
it's only once, this world you know
and you can shatter or you can grow
sometimes we all get lost, falling off track
you can't get these days or memories back
so just do it, give it your all
the strongest people learn to fall
and get back up and learn to fight
for all that's good, all that's right
your decisions, it's all about choice
learn to find that strength, use your voice
because sometimes it's all you have
