I hate my life is written on the pavement again
Like a chalk outline of his hope that died long ago
All the appointments and disappointments are a battle for his joy
All the loss and resignation have stained his soul
The warmth hugs him on his way to work
And the stars sing to him at night
Yet all he sees is his home empty and dark
And he's waiting for something to change his life
And his confidence goes where his confidence comes from
And his confidence goes where his confidence comes from
You've been trying to be big in the eyes of the world
But this world leaves you to do life all on your own
Just because you've been abandoned doesn't mean you are alone
Unbelief has driven your soul but you still got a home
And you confidence goes where your confidence comes from
And you confidence goes where your confidence comes from
And you happiness goes where your happiness comes from
And you confidence goes where your confidence comes from
You don't have to be right
Wouldn't it be nice to put your guard down
You don't have to be busy
Wouldn't it be nice to slow down
You don't have to be perfect
Wouldn't it be nice to know
You don't have to be anything this world wants you to be
You don't have to do it on your own
You don't have to do it on your own

Wonders never happened.
Laughs have diminished.
The sun is still shining,
But night has crept in.
Love has eluded,
Hope for it dwindled.
The arms that were open
Never closed in an embrace.
Faith and I,
Went our separate ways.
The life that was to be -
Have I lost it forever?
In a hurricane of sounds,
Amidst people living and loving,
With broken words in my throat,
All for me is silence.
