I've given it my best shot
With everything that I've got
And still I feel I'm falling short again
I whistle while I'm working
Pretend that I'm not hurting
But deep inside I'm hiding all the pain
The more I try
The more I live a lie

It was love that saved me
You amaze me
But I was never too far from your reach
Yesterday can't hold me
You took control of me
Conviction's overturned and I am pure
And I'm not guilty any more

I feel your hand of mercy
Heal everything that's hurting
Your words so sweet cut right through my defense
You were always waiting for me
But I could never just see
If I lose myself I'll find my way to you

I know I
Don't wanna live a lie.
