Whoever said that life would be easy Never walked a mile in my shoes Everyday a desire awaits me There is nothing else I can do But fight against all odds Against the deadly soul That's living in my heart I won't give up, I won't give in I won't give out or fall apart This is the mountain I must climb This is my time And all at once the shadows disappear I move around the side and into the clear The weight of the light Weighing down on the gla** Makes it hard to tell if you're going Or to tell if you're coming to pa** How do you tell if time has gone by? And I don't want to believe anymore No, I don't want to believe And I don't want to see what I've already seen Or be what I've been And I don't want to be me anymore And I don't want to be free And I don't want to feel how I felt When I used to believe When I held back the light And the long heavy air With it's touches of grace Made the openings appear Now I'm into the clear
