All my life it seems
People smash your dreams
And as time goes by
I still wonder why
They all just fall in line
And walk the path of least resistance
Why are they terrified
A leap of faith won't always end with tragedy

[Chorus:]
I search the dark for light
Peel back the black for white
I sleep with demons
But I dream of angels

Feels like every day
We sell our souls to pay
For this god who reaches down
His words can't make a sound
So it seems we're on our own
But not alone a bleak existence
I can't accept this fate
The world can be the one that I create

[Chorus]

You are the echo in my mind tonight
You are the answer to my plea
Belief in me I had it all along
I won't walk blindly into the open fire then wait around to see
If you could see it through different eyes you would know it's joy
And if you could see it through different eyes you'd see the all the world
If I could show you the sun through the trees could you see them still
And if I could give you the air that you need would you still ask how

[Chorus]
