[00:00.83]I wish I could cross my arms

[00:04.56]And cross your mind

[00:07.20]Cause I believe you'd unfold your paper heart

[00:11.32]And wear it on your sleeve

[00:13.02]All my life I wish I broke mirrors instead of promises

[00:19.65]Cause all I see

[00:21.61]Is a shattered conscience staring right back at me

[00:25.39]I wish I had covered all my tracks completely

[00:31.40]Cause I'm so afraid

[00:32.85]Is that the light at the far end of the tunnel or just the train

[00:37.68]Lift your arms only heaven knows where the danger grows

[00:44.07]And it's safe to say there's a bright light up ahead

[00:48.35]And help is on the way

[00:55.03]Help is on the way

[00:56.87]I forget the last time I felt brave

[00:59.79]I just recall insecurity

[01:02.77]Cause it came down like a tidal wave

[01:07.04]And sorrow swept over me

[01:09.83]
[01:20.81]Depression please cut to the chase

[01:25.11]And cut a long story short

[01:27.73]Oh please be done

[01:29.76]How much longer can this drama afford to run

[01:33.46]Fate looks sharp severs all my ties

[01:37.46]And breaks whatever doesn't bend

[01:40.24]But sadly then

[01:42.14]All my heavy hopes just pull me back down again

[01:57.97]I forget the last time I felt brave

[02:01.79]I just recall insecurity

[02:04.57]Cause it came down like a tidal wave

[02:08.70]And sorrow swept over me

[02:11.13]Then I was given grace and love

[02:14.35]I was blind but now I can see

[02:17.00]Cause I've found a new hope from above

[02:21.15]And courage swept over me

[02:23.72]
[02:34.29]It hurts just to wake up

[02:37.35]Whenever you're wearing thin

[02:40.39]Alone on the outside

[02:43.36]So tired of looking in

[02:46.37]The end is uncertain

[02:49.69]And I've never been so afraid

[02:53.47]But I don't need a telescope to see that there's hope

[02:57.11]And that makes me feel brave
