Don't waste your life living lies
Stop the madness right now
Don't waste your youth, seek the truth
Find the courage somehow
To be free and believe
What you want can be yours
Honesty the only key
That will unlock those doors
Don't bite your tongue or be among
Those who run from resolve
Face all your fears, they'll disappear
The problem's easily solved
And stay free, free and clear
From doubt, guilt or shame
The only thing to fear
Is that you'll have no one to blame
In this lifetime which could be over
Before you even know it
In this lifetime if you love someone
You'd better show it
Be what you are take it as far
It's not so hard to get real
It's up to you the only rule
Is that you do what you feel
Don't waste time justifying
Or hiding out like a child
The true crime is you denying
All that is unreconciled
In this lifetime it could be over
Before you even know it
In this lifetime if you love someone
You'd better show it
Now, if I'm walking around
With my head hanging down, uninspired
Then how will I ever see
What this life holds for me
When it's on higher ground
Live this lifetime
It could be over before you even know it
In this lifetime if you love something
You'd better show it now
