																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
