Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Waking up one day
I say I leave enough
Too many years of that
Too many tears for that
I'm holdin' up my life
I'm holdin' on too tight
I had enough of that
I sing a prayer for that
I'm getting old enough
To know what's wrong, what's right
But I got freedom here
My mind, you'll never get
[Verse 2]
This is it, this is all
We can stand, we can fall
Gonna go for it all
And I choose to stand tall
[Verse 3]
What if I never wake?
Can't see what's wrong, what's right
Guess I'm bolder now
Those same old storylines
I thought I knew it all
Came back to hit me hard
Too many tears for that
Too many years of that
[Verse 4]
This is it, this is all
We can stand, we can fall
Gonna go for it all
And I choose to stand tall
