Lyrics

you gotta learn to love
when you?re afraid to lose
you gotta learn to live
before you?re gone...

if all the mess around you
vanished in the air
and if happiness had found you
would you then be unaware

would you be free from the chain
or would you still know the pain
of feeling not good enough
could you open up your eyes
without trying to disguise
or scrutinize your imperfections

how many truths will pass you by
how much satisfaction will you deny
you want to run when the fiction gets
a little too real
a little too right

when will you stop running away
will you ever live a moment before it?s yesterday
how many days will turn to night
when the morning feels so right
but twilight bleeds into wrong
and how long will you live in doubt
before you start to figure out
you?re chasing a river that leads into the ground

how many times will you turn around and run
the minute we start to truly become one
you want to run when the fiction gets
a little too real
a little too right
