Intro:
You’re scared,
when you say,
you talked to them today.
When asked,
your faith
you’ll cry,
no sound,
wipe the tears with your doubts
and hide again
I can’t sleep, It’s just taking time off my feet
but my head instead is going a hundred miles a beat
and I’m thinking as I’m sinking and he’s winking at me
cause they know that desperation and temptation is free. Do you see?
I can’t live this way just to write a song to play
Just enough to stay alive, just enough to breathe away
another day, another face, and I will lose another race
save me now ‘cause tomorrow’s gone, just like yesterday
Instrumental:
They laugh,
in your face,
cause they took your grace.
But did you
give it away (Oh, yeah)
They cry,
no sound,
wipe the tears with your doubts
and hide again
On the eve of a day that’s forgotten and fake
and the trees they await and clouds anticipate the start of a
day when we put on our face and a mask that portrays that we don’t need grace
and the meaning and wait of the day is lost without a trace
on the eve of a day that is bigger than us
but we open our eyes only because we’re told that we must
and the trees wave their arms and the clouds try to plead desperately yelling out
there’s something else in this world we need and it happens to be free

I won’t be afraid
I won’t be afraid
I won’t be afraid.
He is strong
and I’ll live another day
I’ll live another day
I’ll live another day.
He is strong
and I won’t be afraid
I won’t be afraid
I won’t be afraid.
He is strong
and I’ll live another day
I’ll live another day
I’ll live
Cause I can’t sleep
it’s just taking time off my feet
but instead my head’s going a hundred miles a beat
and I’m thinking as I’m sinking and he’s winking at me
cause they know that desperation and temptation is free Do you see?
we can’t live this way just write a song to play
Just to stay alive, just enough to breathe away
another day another face I will lose another race
Save me now cause tomorrow’s gone just like yesterday
