    What if we really believed

    What we said we did?

    What if we lived the way

    We knew was right?

    What if taking time off

    Wasn’t an option?

    And it was now

    Or it was never?

     

    Open your eyes

    Don’t you see it?

    You are being drained

    Strained and distracted

    They tell you to close your eyes and relax

    Because they are taking away your tomorrow

    The one that was supposed to be written

    The one we needed you to write

    But you were too busy

     

    What if we stood for

    The things that moved our hearts?

    What if we opened the door

    When we saw opportunity coming?

    We are scared to death of our own dreams

    Scared that maybe it is true

    That the passion burns inside us for a reason

    And our role is irreplaceable

    And maybe that will cost me everything

     

    But no

    Let me fritter my time

    Let me rest

    I deserve a break today

    I feel as guilty as hell because I crossed the line

    I know it

    And so I drown it

    And do it all over again

     

    There has to be more

    There has to be a door out of here

    Open me

    Take me

    Save me
