I've seen saints become abandonment and heroes lose lucidity,

So I try to stay two steps ahead of the hard times.

All that is forever is the struggle that we share.

If we loved half like we've hated we could climb above despair.

I recall what it is I live for

Why it is I'm fighting

The reasons stay the same.

with hearts that span for miles.

I hope one day they'll be singing this song.
