It used to feel like a fairy tale Now it seems we were just pretending We'd fix our world And on our way to a happy ending Then it turns out life Is far less like a bedtime story Then a tragedy with no big reveal Of the hero's glory And it seems we weren't prepared For a game that wasn't fair Do we just go home? Can we follow through? When all hope is gone There is one thing we can do Let's just live Day by day And not be conquered by our sorrows The past can't hold us down We must break free Inside we're torn apart But time will mend our hearts Move onward, not there yet So let's just live Can we get back to a happy place? We've suffered so much pain and sorrow After yesterday, is there any way We can trust tomorrow? Will we go through life filled with strife Like it's torn and tattered? Can we keep this up When we know that every hope has shattered? And the lesson isn't new That some dreams just can't come true When it finally falls And the battle's through When our faith is gone And there's nothing left to lose Let's just live Day by day And not be conquered by our sorrows The past can't hold us down We must break free Inside we're torn apart But time will mend our hearts Move onward, not there yet So let's just live When it feels like there's nothing Worth living for Everything is broken The light's not there anymore And the story Takes an unexpected turn A friend is suddenly gone We can cry our lives away But if they were here They'd say "Go forward You must keep moving on" Let's just live Just one day Let's forget about our problems Let's fall in love with life And just be free The sun will never fade The night won't steal our day Let's dance and laugh and love And let's just live
