Pain & Desire

Tonight I lie awake, hoping for what tomorrow brings
I close my eyes, but I just can't sleep
So then I'll try, to give you everything
I never wanted anything more, my heart it yearns
My soul it cries, to fulfill my dreams, and to give to the world
Well it takes pain, and desire
to achieve the things that you want
To cross that line you got to try to stay alive
I took a walk, I had a talk, but the only person there was me
Shadows chased, as my mind raced,
Trying to answer the questions in my head
I look around, and I see the world
and I'm wondering just why we are here
Well it takes pain, and desire
to achieve the things that you want
To cross that line you got to try to stay alive
Tonight I lie awake, hoping for what tomorrow brings
I close my eyes, and I can't sleep
I just toss and turn in my bed
Well it takes pain, and desire
to achieve the things that you want
To cross that line you got to try to stay alive
