[Hook] 
Never will fall, never will fly 
Never be able to make it alive 
Never will know when it's my time to go 
But until that day shows I will open my eyes 
Never will crawl, never will dive 
Never be able to see my demise 
Ending is up to the fates to decide 
And I leave no regrets in the shadow behind 
(2x) 

[Verse 1] 
This is life 
Rage against the dying of the light 
Balance on a tight-rope, threads, slowly sliced with a knife 
Find a way to navigate the mines and find happiness 
Defined as cutting ties with fear and living where our passion is 
Here, now, the moment's quickly passin' 
And no matter what we do our life is held ransom 
Asking what the meaning is, but we're the one whose questioned 
Lessons learned and finding answers, pass em on is our redemption 
Never restin, when moments test our poise 
Try to knock us down with suffering we can't avoid 
We make our choice, bow or keep our eyes up 
Give in, give up, and wave the flag or make our tragedy a triumph 
It's rarely easy, but [bad word] is that we're all in need of the grind 
To give it purpose, what's freedom if we never know the bind? 
And there's no shackle, til sound of the gallows and gavel go strike 
Except what we give power to 
Nothing holds us from our flight 
Unless we let it. 

[Hook] 

[Verse 2] 
This is beautiful - even when it isn't 
And my limits make me stronger when I choose to fight against em 
No longer, and honor [bad word] that I wander along the route 
On my own and I water roots when I'm showin how to lace boots 
And keep going, never slowing down, holding on until I've found 
What I live and what I fight for, what I'd gladly give my life for 
When I find my why I can handle any how 
I can sacrifice blood and sweat from the brow 
Freedom's the acceptance that the work is always endless 
And don't let this second guess the seconds spent until the day I exit 
Left or stage right - no time for stage fright 
No lines to memorize, just do my best to improvise 
In disguise I reside if I wear a mask of lies 
To try to hide my frightened eyes 
Blinded by the stars I idolize 
And try to be like 
Rewrite this foolish path to roam 
sleep walking dead zombie living in the [bad word] 
Destiny is only shown to those who've got the strength to face 
Their demons straight and see em break 
Beneath the weight of love we make 
free, and let go of waiting for the crystal ball 
Back against the wall will conquer nothing if you think you're small 
You are, but legends mark their own tarot cards 
Count the blessings till the endings dripping bone marrow hard 
It will be, again and again, but everything, everyone, everywhere passes 
And dreams are made awake, not waiting on a mattress 
Until we catch our train, moment-to-moment we capture and master this 
No [bad word]  there's no ever after after this
