Quick to burn

But slow to learn

With every breath

Cheating death

Life's a stone

You've got to keep warm

Cause with every breath

It's cheating death

Breathe in, breathe out

Never look down

At that empty lake

That pit of snakes

That dream from which no one wakes

Times are tough

The water's rife

(Washed out to sea)

[?] You'll be

(Hold on to [?])

Cast out to sea

Wind, don't fail

Let it bend your self

Let the natural force

(Hold on to [?])

Blow you to safer shores

I never think of

Blinking, blink out of

This universe

The stars will burst

There's no reverse

This life's a curse

Just keep believing

Till your dying day

Don't let the night

And keep light in your way

You've got the strength to go on

Search in yourself and be strong

Search in yourself and be strong

Just keep believing

Till your dying day

Don't let the night

And keep light in your way

You've got the strength to go on

Search in yourself and be strong

Keep on searching on

Keep on searching on

Keep on searching on

Keep on searching on

Search in yourself and be strong
