Time after time
We hear the world's cry
No matter how we try
We're always one step behind

This is the way we live
These are the hands that give
There's a face in the mirror
The eyes of a stranger

You can burn yourself
If you fly too close
To the sun that shines so bright
You can turn away
Or decide to stay
Where the darkness takes over the light

We are weakened by the virus
There's nothing we can feel
If this will be our last song
I welcome you to the real

This is the way we live
These are the hands that give
There's a face in the mirror
The eyes of a stranger

You can burn yourself
If you fly too close
To the sun that shines so bright
You can turn away
Or decide to stay
Where the darkness takes over the light
