Lyrics
Your life was so beautiful
Wide-eyed
Innocent
Carved out of a story book
Rapture
And wedding bliss
And now you are wounded
A broken heart
A broken life
You’ve fallen from the skies
Bruised and betrayed
Fallen
Don’t stop believin’
Take hold
Of eternal life
Don’t stop believin’
Don’t stop
You’ve fought the good fight!
While young you were protected
Nourished
Defended
But now you lie naked
Wide open
Defenseless
Your demons consume you
Captive
Ravished
They bend you with their rumors
Scar you
With temptation
Don’t stop believin’
Don’t stop
You’ve run a good race
Don’t stop believin’
Don’t stop
You’re Glory bound!
You used to walk in sunshine
Poured out
Sparkling
Your dance was well attended
Free style
Peaceful
The dark night is upon you
The treasures you own
Can’t save you
Your life is uncertain
The war that you wage
Is hidden
Don’t stop believin’
Don’t stop
You’ve run a good race
Don’t stop believin’
Don’t stop
You’re Glory bound!
Your life was so beautiful
Wide-eyed
Innocent
