The Days

1. I have lived with another's arms
Pulling me up until I learned to stand
On my own two feet, with my own ideas
And my own beliefs.

Hearts are broken, nations fall
Youth bright burns, time eats it all
But still it starts back up again
It never ends.

Look at me now, I'm here before you
I finally found the guts to start
With nothing to lose, nothing to hide
And everything to prove.

[Chorus:]
Well it takes, all you've got, all you're made of
And you learn that your soul has got to change
So you throw all you've caught out the window
Carry on, making it up on the way
For the rules you forget by tomorrow
To the countless dusks that hides the blame
Till you learn how to love and to be loved
These are the days and you're living them your way.

2. Every time I try to find the right words
Describe the mess like the sentence heard
I'd hit another wall, such a narrow mind
Down we fall.

Sure it's a risk to take it this far
But how else do you know what the limits are
What the dark feels like on all the crowds
Holds court they're not always right.

Look at me now, I'm here before you
I finally found the guts to start
With nothing to lose, nothing to hide
And everything to prove.

[Chorus]

Lights on
It's clearer now
I wouldn't change a thing
I wouldn't change a thing.

[Chorus]
