You've been working so hard for it
Aching for the path that you hope will be on your side
This time
And you know that you're giving
All you've got and you're living
Like you're not
So give
Go on give in
This time

Say you wanted a different kind of life
Inspite of all of your trying
I know you have been lying
To yourself
For the longest winding mile
So go give in
This time

For the dream it is fading
In the scene if your own making
And you hope you'll wake soon
This time

But your eyes are wide open
And your heart has shut tight
And you know that you're choking
On the part that takes flight
From this life
You hardly recognise anymore

So go ahead close your eyes
Dream instead of those lies
You tell yourself late at night
In the guise you'll get through your woes
That beckon you to come hide

Or this time give some meaning
To the world you'll end up leaving
Without you
Without ever having known you
By its side
