Reason For Living

I lie alone and thinking
How could this ever happen
Is it real, am I dreaming
And when your heart's been burned
How can someone learn
To get over their fears
You told me I should be strong
Oh, I'm trying
I feel I can't go on
You left me here on my own
Without a reason for living
A chance for forgiving
Or time to make it okay
And now I'm stuck with the vision of my indecision
Taking it all away
From me
With all the time you're taking
Slowly my heart's been breaking
You've been fine, I've been bleeding
I'll have to wait my turn
Your respect I'll earn
No more joking or teasing
You told me I should be strong
Oh, I'm trying
I feel I can't go on
You left me here on my own
Without a reason for living
A chance for forgiving
Or time to make it okay (Time to make it okay)
And now I'm stuck with the vision of my indecision
Taking it all away
A thousand times before I've been almost sure
This time I need to know
I've spent all my life chasing all my dreams
I'm not letting this go
Yeah, ooohh
Laaaeeeyy
In my, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
Without a reason for living (Ooh)
A chance for forgiving
Or time to make it okay (Time to make it okay)
And now I'm stuck with the vision of my indecision
Taking it all away
Without a reason for living
A chance for forgiving
Or time to make it okay (Time to make it okay)
And now I'm stuck with the vision of my indecision
Taking it all away
