It’s not the easy thing
Writing words for someone else to sing
It’s not the easy thing
When my thoughts betray my hopes and dreams
Who knows who will understand
Who knows who will see the plan
It’s not the easy thing
To forget the good things I have seen
It’s not the easy thing
When I change the way my mind has been
But I know there must be more
I know your worth fighting for
I wanna see
What’s been written for me
I want life
Like you meant it to be
I want the truth
Despite the pain it could bring
I wanna know
I wanna show
I believe in something
If it was a simple thing
They would not ignore your claim to fame
If it was simple thing
Then we’d hear them shouting out your name
Let me hear the sweetest sound
Let me hear it louder now
Let me hear the sweetest sound
Let me hear it louder now
Let me hear the sweetest sound
Let me hear it louder now
Let me hear the sweetest sound
Let me hear it louder now
I wanna see
What’s been written for me
I want life
Like you meant it to be
Show me the truth
Despite the pain it could bring
I wanna know
I wanna show
I believe in something

One man on a beach with a vision
Heard tales of a distant shore
He knew there’d be no returning
So few had been before
But there’s more
Is it now
Is it forever
To live or die for a cause that matters
The pages seem to turn
On lives like these
Long hair when it wasn’t his fashion
Clothes cut to a different style
Transformed to see transformation
Walking the extra mile
Mile on mile
Is it now
Is it forever
To live or die for a cause that matters
The pages seem to turn
On lives like these
They sing their song
And write their story
They do it all for a greater glory
While the world is just not worthy
Of their kind
Shed tears for the dearly departed
Would not be turned aside
No end to the good that he started
And when they’re forced to hide
They can’t hide
Is it now
Is it forever
To live or die for a cause that matters
The pages seem to turn
On lives like these
They sing their song
And write their story
They do it all for a greater glory
While the world is just not worthy
Of their kind
Can i be worthy
Could this have been me
Writing the pages of history

See the tears in your eyes
At a glimpse of what could have been
See your smile disguised
By an image you shouldn’t have seen
And the story you tell’s
Not the one that you wish it could be
And you’re burning inside
With all the things that you want to believe
Twenty one
Your life ain’t over
Doesn’t matter what they’ve stolen
You’re standing on the edge of hope again
Past is gone
If not forgotten
You’ll find the strength to stand and walk on
Tomorrow still can be a better day
Hear regret in your sigh
As you picture your broken dream
Hear you talk in denial
Of the things you don’t want to achieve
And the stance that you take
Looks so good there’s so many deceived
I don’t wanna cry fake
But i know that you want to believe
Twenty one
Your life ain’t over
Doesn’t matter what they’ve stolen
You’re standing on the edge of hope again
Past is gone
If not forgotten
You’ll find the strength to stand and walk on
Tomorrow still can be a better day
Don’t give up now
Future’s calling out your name
Don’t give up now
There is time to make a change
Twenty one
Your life ain’t over
Doesn’t matter what they’ve stolen
You’re standing on the edge of hope again
Past is gone
If not forgotten
You’ll find the strength to stand and walk on
Tomorrow still can be a better day

Don’t care much for small talk
Arguments or long walks
Apologies or trading facts
When it doesn’t mean a thing
These empty conversations
Are not my destination
I wanna talk
But i want my words to last
Since we last talked
Can’t shake the thoughts
Of everything i wanted to say
Godspeed next time
Won’t change my lines
And let our conversation always find grace
How easily you’re broken
When cruel words are spoken
And silence steals your confidence
As it slowly bleeds away
But without hesitation
I know this situation
Is not the end
Because some things come to pass
Since we last talked
Can’t shake the thoughts
Of everything i wanted to say
Godspeed next time
Won’t change my lines
And let our conversation always have grace
Grace
A time of healing
Grace
A place of freedom
Where truth and love make new again
Again
Since we last talked
Can’t shake the thoughts
Of everything i wanted to say
Godspeed next time
Won’t change my lines
And let our conversation always have grace
