fiction comes alive as we start to play
hope is no more behind a closed door
as we drift away from what was once before
hope and hopelessness become one
it's all meaningless we've already begun
never opposites when we play the same game
so I listen to the world I know right from wrong
if I can stay focused then I can stay strong
if you ever wonder why I'm trapped inside
it's really just because I told a pack of lies
maybe far a dream, or maybe it was pride
maybe for myself often wonder why?
we're running after life, trying to avoid death
we walk a thin line between hope and despair
running from the truth but it's already here
told so many lies I don't know if they can find me
only one life to live so choose wisely
do you know what side you're on?
does it even matter if it's on the same coin?
if you wanna achieve you gotta believe
the time is right now there's the door here's the keys
just gotta chase the pain away
there's a ray of hope beyond despair
move on-look for the truth in this world
don't be hopeless stay focused
gotta grind every time untill they're open
gotta climb real high where the rope is
it is written in the sky see the opus
try to progress keep your eye on the scope
for yourself or do it for your folks
dedication gotta swear the oath
from this day forth stay on course
everybody wanna see if you'll fall off
been through the worst even cried on the side
no lie never know what you will find
gotta believe let's keep hope alive!
even if the future seems uncertain
survive find true happiness in this world
never
never
