The Valley of Tears

It's not real

Drowning in an ocean as black as night

Summer rain so loud

It hurts your face so coldly

Takes away the fury that shines so bright

And pushed away the clouds

When you think everything's gone wrong

And your feelings are all too strong

It's bad enough

Don't you think it's crazy to just take flight?

This is me

Burning just as high as the city lights

All your wars are won

There's no talking to you

All the pages written have turned to white

And they've all begun

To be something that you can't read

Into something that will succeed

Say a prayer

That's the good news daily, oh, well, that's life

Hey, maybe you can't change the world

But don't run away

And don't be so deeply concerned

You own every day

Well, maybe you can't change the world

It's yours anyway

Here today

Can you feel the power under your skin?

Dreams that come alive

It's a big illusion

Counting up the favours that you could win

If you take the dive

That's the chance that we all must take

And be sure that you don't forsake

So it goes

Everything without, everything within

Hey, maybe you can't change the world

But don't run away

And don't be so deeply concerned

You own every day

Well, maybe you can't change the world

It's yours anyway

Life goes on

Innocent the baby with eyes so clear

No one knows his name

And I swear that's holy

Things will be the same for a million years

No one takes the blame

But the sun will come up each day

And the moon will be on its way

Rich or poor

Well, it's all the same in the valley of tears

Hey, maybe you can't change the world

But don't run away

And don't be so deeply concerned

You own every day

Well, maybe you can't change the world

It's yours anyway

Hey, maybe you can't change the world

But don't run away

And don't be so deeply concerned

You own every day
