Courage

Sweat drips out thoughts pour in Running in vain trying to catch that kid Too much time regretting what I'm not Robbing me blind of every gift He bought Am I falling for it Really falling for it The oldest trick has got me thinking my whole life's a failure Let it spiral here Build a fire there Light it up and watch it spread across the hemisphere A trick that's so simple Is so effective and evil They start running the show of my head (mmm hmm) I know it's an issue A wall I can't walk through but I believe and choose to live Live Even when the thought seems far off Live Inch by inch go forward Live Sometimes courage looks like getting up and choosing to Live Walk right through the fire Live Call on the Higher Power Sometimes courage looks like getting up and choosing to live I'm still fighting for it While there's breath in these lungs Take the thoughts, light em up Yeah I'm still fighting for it While there's breath in these lungs So take the thoughts Light em up Live it like it's all I got Circle and squares just routine If I broke off now who knows where'd that lead The road less travelled can't look like this Keep choosing the path where I find no rest Am I falling for it Really falling for it The oldest trick has got me thinking my whole life's a failure Let it spiral here Build a fire there Light it up and watch it spread across the hemisphere Sticks and stones may break my bones But thoughts appear more dangerous I know it's an issue A wall I can't walk through but I believe and choose to live
