Something has been awaked
I feel it deep within my bones
It's building strength within me
I won't believe that you might take me
You'd like to think that you could
Don't ever tell me the odds
I'd like to see your best shot
Will burn down all that it may touch
I'll go out in a blaze of glory
You will fade silently to dust
I won't give you my permission
My body's mine to command
I need to feel like I can fight this
I'd like to think that I can
I'd like to think that I can
Why can't we just live together?
There's room for both of us to stay here
We could live like they do on TV
with tape across the floor
In this imperfect harmony
I'm still down here with my shadow
Somehow both sodden and hollow
I can't remember what it felt like
Without the weight of this load
I'd like to think I made a difference
I wish that I could say that I have no regrets
But there is no time left
Forget today and turn away
Soon, my pain, it will end
From here on, I'm on my own
Your pain, too, it will pass
The love you gave will never fade
I'd like to think that it can't
And so, I'll leave you with that
They say that life will find a way
I'd like to think that it has
I'd like to think that it has
I'd like to think that it has
