Oh these are fast times

And we're hanging by our fingers to a lifeline

Brave enough to see it from the bright side

But lost enough to let it dim

Oh whoa

We cut it too close

Cause we're mostly only living off our high hopes

Instead of ever getting what we need most

Like Jesus and the way to Him

So don't try to hide

The fire in your eyes

Or lose all the ways you see

And Don't be afraid

To fight for the faith

And all that your heart believes

Oh M-m-m-my that's life

To live on the outside of the line

Just don't listen bad advice

And try to do what's right

Well these are close calls

So I held the Holy Spirit in a free fall

Cause everyone around me made me feel small

And you were there to lift me up

Oh whoa

I’ll fight the good fight

While every other eye is on the bright lights

And I’m just in the middle going out of my mind

When I’m still trying to find

Ways to get close to you

I try to reach more

But I'm constantly reminded where I fall short

Like I'm the only person that just feels out of place

When I'm looking for ways

To get close to You

You said

So don't try to hide

The fire in your eyes

Or lose all the ways you see

And Don't be afraid

To fight for the faith

And all that your heart believes

Oh M-m-m-my that's life

To live on the outside of the line

Just don't listen bad advice

And try to do what's right.

Take my plans today

Show me a better way

Give me the words to say

Cause if my heart is in a blender, and I need You to get better, then You’re love’s the only way that I will

So don't try to hide

The fire in your eyes

Or lose all the ways you see

And Don't be afraid

To fight for the faith

And all that your heart believes

Oh M-m-m-my that's life

To live on the outside of the line

Just don't listen bad advice

And try to do what's right.
