We all hold on to something
Reach out for something
When all hope seems lost
Some cry out to heaven
Some keep forgettin’ to reach out and touch
Shattered trust and broken vows
Make a run for higher ground
You’re only lost until you’re found
Thru the dark and running scared
When it seems that no one’s there to answer your prayers
For all that you want, there’s a time and place.
One leap of faith sometimes that’s all it takes
One ray of light to split the night
When you’re kicked off the stage of life
Face in the dirt, get on your feet, we all get hurt
One more pill to kill the pain
One last drink to keep you from going insane,
But the pain remains
Desperate deeds for desperate times
What’s the point of running when there’s nowhere to hide
No guiding light
For all that you want, there’s a time and place
One leap of faith sometimes that’s all it takes
One drop of rain on a desert plain
When you’re kicked off the stage of life
Face in the dirt, get on your feet, we all get hurt
There’s no easy way, let’s just hope that one day
There will be a place for us to stay
No more pain, no sorrow,
Just home instead
Somewhere to lay down your head
We all hold on to something
Reach out for something
Some cry out to heaven
Some keep forgettin’ to reach out and touch,
Reach out and touch
One leap of faith sometimes that’s all it takes
One ray of light to split the night
When you’re kicked off the stage of life
Face in the dirt, get on your feet, we all get hurt
One leap of faith sometimes it’s all it takes
One ray of light to split the night
When you’re kicked off the stage of life
Face in the dirt, you get on your feet, cuz we all get hurt
you get on your feet, cuz we all get hurt;
you’re not the only one
