It used to feel like a fairy tale
Now it seems we were just pretending
We'd fix our world
And on our way to a happy endingThen it turns out life
Is far less like a bedtime story
Then a tragedy with no big reveal
Of the hero's gloryAnd it seems we weren't prepared
For a game that wasn't fair
Do we just go home?
Can we follow through?
When all hope is gone
There is one thing we can do
Let's just live
Day by day
And not be conquered by our sorrows
The past can't hold us down
We must break free
Inside we're torn apart
But time will mend our hearts
Move onward, not there yet
So let's just liveCan we get back to a happy place?
We've suffered so much pain and sorrow
After yesterday, is there any way
We can trust tomorrow?Will we go through life filled with strife
Like it's torn and tattered?
Can we keep this up
When we know that every hope has shattered?
And the lesson isn't new
That some dreams just can't come true
When it finally falls
And the battle's through
When our faith is gone
And there's nothing left to loseLet's just live
Day by day
And not be conquered by our sorrows
The past can't hold us down
We must break free
Inside we're torn apart
But time will mend our hearts
Move onward, not there yet
So let's just liveWhen it feels like there's nothing
Worth living for
Everything is broken
The light's not there anymore
And the story
Takes an unexpected turn
A friend is suddenly goneWe can cry our lives away
But if they were here
They'd say
"Go forward
You must keep moving on."Let's just live
Just one day
Let's forget about our problems
Let's fall in love with life
And just be freeThe sun will never fade
The night won't steal our day
Let's dance and love and laugh
And let's just live
