Lyrics
Chorus
I watch you and grin
something awakens from within
how can i open your eyes
how can I make you see
all that you mean to me
oh if you could just see
Verse 1
My heart is broken
ripped in half
something to be taken
there is no doubt
my life is shaken
Verse 2
The choice is yours
follow or stray
a life of blessing
or a world of decay
it's your life that lays
Bridge
I've lost my strength
I will not fight
I will lay you down
Please do what's right
