Lyrics
V: I had my say you went your way
All your friends did not let you down
Now the new day we?re farther away
Write it off put on that party gown
C: If you live your life
Like a coming attraction
With heroes and villains
On either side
When you open your eyes
There?s no happy ending
Just heartache and pain to hide
V: I was outside looking inside
Sad to say there?s still a lot to learn
When you?re inside lookin? outside
You know it all
You?ll get the key to turn
C: If you live your life
In angry confusion
Surrender those feelings
That simmer and burn
If you give to the world
You start a reaction
Of goodness and love in return
V: I was outside lookin? inside
Too bad it was a rainy day
You were inside lookin? outside
You could not see it any other way
C: If you live your life
Like a coming attraction
Step into the future
End up in the past
Do you get your fill or only illusion?
They?ll say you hung on ?til the last
T: Come on people let?s pull it together
Surrender those feelings
That simmer and burn
If we give to the world
We?ll seize the solution
Let goodness and love return
Let goodness and love return
