Did you come that we might just survive? |
|
Did you come so we could just get by? |
|
Did you walk among us |
|
So we might merely limp along beside? |
|
I was bound, I have been set free |
|
But I have settled for apathy |
|
Did you come to make me new |
|
And know I'd crawl right back into the skin you found me in? |
|
It's where I am, not where I've been |
|
You make me want to live |
|
You make me want to live |
|
You came to shake us |
|
And to wake us up to something more |
|
Than we'd always settled for |
|
And you make me want to live |
|
We've all been up on the mountain top |
|
A golden glow that?s bound to soon wear off |
|
Then it's back to the mundane telling tales of glory days |
|
When we were hopeful that this change was here to stay |
|
So why would a young man |
|
Live in a waste land |
|
When the castle of his dreams is standing by? |
|
Why would a princess |
|
Put on an old dress |
|
To dance with her beloved and a chance to catch his eye? |
