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
