A young man opened His eyes for the first time And saw that he had lived a lie Against all convictions And parent's decisions He lived his life for the first time And it couldn't be that we were made for nothing Life's the hourglass and we just fill our time Could this really be some sort of true life story? Or is this the time that we just wait for us to die? Alone and broken With our bodies open This is love for the first time It's not always feeling But the comprehending Struggle is a part of life And it couldn't be that we were made for nothing Life's the hourglass and we just fill our time Could this really be some sort of true life story? Or is this the time that we just wait for us to die? Breathe With the confidence of your heart pounding And breathe With the confidence that life's surrounding And breathe And breathe I promise if I stay So delicate and brave That I would only see What's standing there in front of me But if I truly live I'll have my heart to give In ways we can't explain Cause we're living past all this pain The truth is we're alive We're just living deep inside These fragile little minds Instead of opening our eyes
