I'm not used to having things go the way I want
So by default I still complain
Even though nothing's really wrong
Right now I am content,
And maybe one day I'll be happy
I wonder what that's like
I can imagine it already
Now there's a point to life
Something I advocated against
I once thought religion was naive

(Chorus A 2x)
And even if my life
Is based upon pure lies
It can't be all that bad
Cause this way of thinking
Gets me what I want...

This is a song of second chances
This is an awakening to the light
This is what I've needed
For so very long
You are not quite there yourself
But I'm starting to believe
That our destiny is our own
With a little help from God
I know you'd disapprove
But I'd like to pray for you...

(Bridge)
You say you've got to trust your instincts
But I want you to stay positive.
Cause if you don't believe that it might,
Than nothing will ever change...
And you'll keep doing yourself in,
Like you've done for years...
Negativity is harmful,
And just might take it's toll...
I know you're probably skeptical
There was a time that I was too...

(Chorus A' 2x)
But even if my life
Is based upon pure lies
It can't be all that bad
Cause this way of thinking
Gets me what I want...

(Ending 4x)
I'll be waiting on the other side
For that day you'll finally see a sign...
