Lyrics

Tonight I lie awake, hoping for what tomorrow brings

I close my eyes, but I just can't sleep

So then I'll try, to give you everything

I never wanted anything more, my heart it yearns

My soul it cries, to fulfill my dreams, and to give to the world

Well it takes pain, and desire

to achieve the things that you want

To cross that line you got to try to stay alive

I took a walk, I had a talk, but the only person there was me

Shadows chased, as my mind raced,

Trying to answer the questions in my head

I look around, and I see the world

and I'm wondering just why we are here

Well it takes pain, and desire

to achieve the things that you want

To cross that line you got to try to stay alive

Tonight I lie awake, hoping for what tomorrow brings

I close my eyes, and I can't sleep

I just toss and turn in my bed

Well it takes pain, and desire

to achieve the things that you want

To cross that line you got to try to stay alive
