Some men try and build themselves a name
They'll prostitute a talent for their ten seconds of fame
Now who's the bigger name down in the grave
The man who had it all or he who gave it all away
I don't want to live in the shadows
Of who I was created to be
Give it another try, don't let it pass you by
Don't leave here regretting what would have been your life
Don't let it lure you in, Only a fool forgets
It's all going to disappear, it's all going to disappear
Give up what you think you've got
Because you're leaving it here
Love is blind, at least that's what they say
Well who are they anyway?
I'm not buying those clichés
I refuse to settle for a fake
Give me love that doesn't change
Give me love that really sees
I want more than barely surviving
I say love is worth a second try
Give it another try, don't let it pass you by
Don't leave here regretting what should have been your life
Don't let them lure you in, only a fool forgets
It's all going to disappear, it's all going to disappear
Give up what you think you've got
Because you're leaving it here
Give it another try, don't let it pass you by
Because life is the thing you'll find
When you find what it means to die
Who you gonna live for, who you gonna live for in this life
Who you gonna live for, cause tomorrow we will die
