This is your last stand
Don't take the battle alone
All other options have failed you
Don't you think it's worth the risk?
Don't you think you ought to give one more try?
Time to give hope to what you've once lost
I can feel it pulsing inside you
Won't you release it from the cage?
You've got nothing to lose
You're fighting a battle you cannot win
Unless you put one foot in front of the other
And give Love a fighting chance
This is your last song
Won't you play it pretty, girl
All of the children wait for you
Don't you think you better try?
Don't you think you ought to get off of the ground?
Time to stand up and start to run
I can sense the feeling within you
Won't you let it flow through your veins?
You've got nothing to lose
You're fighting a battle you cannot win
Unless you reach for the next ladder rung
And give Love a fighting chance
This is the last time
Can't you understand my words
All of the Christians are praying
Don't you feel the emptiness?
Don't you think you ought to take the offer?
Time to put back the pieces of your heart
I believe this will save you
Won't uphold your end of the deal?
There's nothing you can lose
Love will help you win the battle
But you gotta make a change
And give Love a fighting chance
Give up your sorrow
Don't start tomorrow
Look to Him above
I know God is Love
God wants to help you
You don't need a pew
You can lose nothing with Christ
God has won the battle for you
Why can't you live for love
And give God a fighting chance?
Yeah, Yeah. Live for Love
It will save you
Wake up, take a breath
And give Love a fighting chance

>>>i tried to give love a fighting chance
love never wanted me
it because the love you looked for was in a person, true love comes from God!
John 3:16 states"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever beleiveth in Him shall not persih but have everlasting life."
A sacrifice so we may live eternally, that is true love.
much love,
