Spent your life on the fence And wonder where the time went From the time you were born You always did what you? ve told When you? ve gone there? s nothing you leave behind Always easy to please Never get off your knees Give and you will receive Just like a kick in the teeth How long can you just turn the other cheek Tell me what you? ve got to lose There? s just so much you can do Stand up, one shot can make a nation cry One voice can make them wonder why One spark can make a fire burn One lesson everybody must learn You gotta search for the truth It? s just so easy to lose When there? s so many lies That find a way to get through I know the future is in your hands Don? t hide your head in your hands There? s just so much you can stand Who? s gonna answer your prayers When you are no longer there If you? re looking for signs You must be crazy or blind I know the future is in your hands Tell me what you gotta lose There? s so much more you can do
