When all around seems bleak and grim
don't give up, don't give in
Dig your heels in, stand your ground
Make things happen, turn things round
You only have one shot at life
You can make it if you try
Take the step, make your plans
You hold it all within your hands
This is your life, make it your's
One deep breath and through the door
Take it, shape it, make your way
Don't be unhappy one more day
The tears will dry, the fear will pass
Live the future, not the past.
