One last time and then we will make
The choice to change our ways
Life's greatest excuse has gotten hold of us
It eats away at decisions and promises we made
Stealing our success and taking our triumphs for another day
It's not too late to rethink and to return to
The hour when our desire freely ran
It's the greatest shame
Carved out on the ones who have turned away
Giving up their dreams for mediocrity
Never knowing, never thinking they've signed their lives away
But what's to be said for us who take life by the hand?
We will prove wrong all of our critics
And smash our greatest doubts
We will see heights we never thought we'd reach
I know the pain that keeps us down
Somehow self doubt keeps us from breaking ground
We need to reclaim control and get ourselves on track
Forget our mistakes, we've made so many
But there's no going back
Don't let go, it's not too late to rethink and to return to
The hour when our desire freely ran
Rethink, return, there's no looking back
We can be free through this struggle
Decide to find strength in your beliefs
There's no looking back, we will be free

All this pain closing in
Pressure from every side has got me running
Advice comes to cloud my plight
And opinions breed my confusion
I will admit, I haven't been the scared in so long
A friend lost with no explanation strikes me as wrong
Family should not disappear when they disagree
It just goes to show your love was fake
Not once did I think you would abandon me
In my time of need
There's no sense in trying to be someone I'll never be
So save your spite and walk away
Just walk away

No! This has gone far enough
When mouths run fast fists attack
Walls may crash but we're not moving
These nights mean too much to let them fall without a fight
And now a time's at hand where we must defend what's so clear, so right
It's time to choose our sides, so who will rise to this call
Who will empower the weak and catch friends when they fall
It's time to choose our sides, no backing out
And if they want a war, they'll see a war
They'll get a war tonight
There's power in our desperation
There is strength in a mind that does not rest
Always ready, always holding on
These times, they are our tests
Through hard work and dedication
Justice will come to pass
Here tonight everything changes
We'll lay siege to closed minds
Tonight everything changes
These ties that bind will not be broken
We'll lay siege to closed minds and tightened fists
Staying close to the truth we know
Moving past whatever is in our way
This has gone far enough
When we can stand together in one mind and one heart
We'll see, everything will change
If we can stand together
When we can stand together
They will know, it will be clear, we are more than heroes

Winding roads and wrong turns
With a flip of a coin your hopes come crashing down
It's easy to be bitter when clarity becomes a cloud
Plans have turned into pieces your friends have let you down
By your side when things are shining
But when it's dark they're nowhere to be found
It's easy to be bitter when you've been left behind
Soon your hand will place the blame
To being this cycle once again
But there will come a time when our hands are open
Holding one another's worries
Dry your eyes you're not alone
Cut the loss, keep moving on
Life has it's share of hard times
It's better to take a risk than try to calculate it's chances
Keep pushing on, you're not alone

Yesterday is gone, my heart is singing a new day's song
With the good days, the bad days will come
But I'm ready to move on
All my worries and all my fears
I've pushed aside in a swift stream of tears
Times have changed, minds have changed
Hope for help was lost
We'll find it real, not when we get there but here now
In this decision, in the resolve to look around
With open eyes and see that circumstance can't take control
Our lives are in our hands
Looking back on the faint memories
There was a heart that burned to be true
And I will get there when I realize that
Life lies in this moment
Yesterday is gone, but today is in my hands

Time flies and it's flown away with me this time
All my good intentions taken out, by my absent mind
Apologies are far too small when in them arrogance stands tall
So let me throw away my pride because I have nothing to hide
This is our fight, side by side
Reaching out to make this right
No matter how small the chance or how great the task, I will try
No matter how long the fall or what's at stake, I'll aim to fly
You've shown me what it's like to live, nowhere to look but up
Nothing to hold back, everything to give
Your friendship means the world to me
Maybe we'll never lose this
Maybe time will make us into memories
But one thing is true in the end
We'll be glad we gave all we had

Hollowed out, empty
We've watched months erase the memories of years
It's not tradition, not meaningless ideals
It's a fire that draws us near
So come close let your eyes meet mine
Try hard to deny this burning inside
Grab hold to status quo to justify
Keep telling yourself there is nothing more to life
But there's so much more than killing
Than preying on insecurity
Than getting what you want no matter who is at cost
Wake up, realize your virtue is dead
Your life, conviction for vanity
But we'll take this stage never forgetting the days
When heart meant everything
This time is soon to end and all your clothes and cliques will go with it
When the dust clears we'll see that love still stands
The love that has no shame, no fronts no fruitless games
The love that lays life down for a friend
Your time is up

Are you happy with the way you're living
Alone and in the dark?
Turned your back on the ones
Who waited for you when you had gone awry
Always chasing the one who won't ever run you dry
If you've got money, he's got the time
Cast aside everything you held dear
And now it's been so long it seems it never was at all
Breaking bottles, all is lost
Your addictions have a cost
No excuses, I won't buy in
They're nothing but lies
Years past every day a new face to try on
Discourse as cheap as the highs you ride on
Believe me I've tried to stay patiently but it's getting hard
So hard for me not to speak
Here's what I think
You're everything I never want to be
I hate to see a life so compromised
Potential sold just for a selfish drive
Every waking moment when we fail to change
There are choices made
We must search out life for today
Strength to live life for today

It's all the same, putting others down to take their place
Wasting away, strung high on attitude.
Did we forget we all came from the same start
It's all the same, dissent in the name of unity
We hear your words but where are the actions
To merit the glory you say you deserve?
It's just a claim. It's all the same, putting others down to take their place
Wasting away, strung high on attitude
Did we forget we all came from the same start
It's all the same, dissent in the name of unity
We hear your words but where are the actions
To merit the glory you say you deserve?
It's just a claim. Eyes blink, and we grow older. Why not wiser?
Differences that once decorated now divide
Hands throwing hatred only waste their time
Time that could build us up, instead of keeping us at bay
Instead of building walls, brick by brick
They've gotten tall enough
To block our minds but now it's time they fall
Looks like we need to step back
And learn to value the person inside
When we stare across a crowded room
Release all of the preconceived notions that haunt us
It's sad to see so many entertained at their own expense
Talking such good game, casting off every shred of integrity
When will we learn, we're all the same
