Lyrics
So if there's a reason, then why am I here?
What is the meaning of life?
Is there a reason of living in fear?
Up 'til the day that I die
Is there someone who can tell me the truth?
Why can't I live an eternal youth
Playing that future will be make-believe
Now wouldn't that be a life without the grief
Friend of mine, what are you hiding from?
Don't you know there's salvation for everyone?
Death is just another point of view
I've found a place in the light and so will you
Don't be afraid of missing your call
Ignorance will always come before the fall
Whenever you're in trouble you just call my name
Believe me I can save you a life of pain and shame
Still doubting
Still the doubting Thomas that I ever was
Still trying
Still trying to reach the higher course
Still hiding in places I don't belong
Still fighting the faces oh so strong
Relief as I figure out there's nothing left to loose
Will that be the answer to the meaning of life I will choose
Life is a bitch
(And) life still sucks
But I'll try to get over it with a little bit of luck
With some help of my friends
Trying to reach for my hands
I finally realize that this the promised land
That is the reason of my life
