Learn To Live

When I was young and innocent
The world seemed like a brighter place

But life distorts our best intentions
And I lost myself along the way

Until I couldn't see beyond wraiths that blocked my way
(Pushing me away)
If I had a guiding light
I'd find the will to fight
And break through these lies!

If I could learn to forget
If I could learn to forgive
Lay aside my regret
And learn to live

If demons bar my passage
If darkness clouds my way
I'll clear aside the wreckage
And seize the day

In the wake of all my suffering
An angel offered to guide my way

And though she caught me, time and time again
When I fell backwards, she would say

The trials of this life will test the faith in your soul
(But stay in control)
Even with my guiding light
You need the will to fight
To break through these lies!
