Once I was fearless, going up against the world
Optimistic, seeing all the reasons for
Good through the darkness, I could live through anything
Where, where did that go?

I wanna feel it like I did back then but more
I really need it more than I've ever before
I believed in hope, oh, where, where did it go?

Stop fearing death
I want something to live for
I've been holding my breath
I want something to live for
Because when the deaf feel the sound
I want something to live for
I wanna make you proud
I want something to live for

"Hey, how's it going?" "Good and how are you?" "Good."
Do you ever wonder how much that isn't true?
Will you help me out if you can
I'll take you as you are please just take me as I am

Stop fearing death
I want something to live for
I've been holding my breath
I want something to live for
Because when the deaf feel the sound
I want something to live for
I wanna make you proud
I want something to live for

Idea of hope, I believe in you
And I need it now
God, I need you
And yes, your words I believe are true
But sometimes I just fall down
And break though, I don't mean to

"Stop fearing that and never look back."
I swear I wish I could

Stop fearing death
I want something to live for
I've been holding my breath
I want something to live for
Because when the deaf feel the sound
I want something to live for
I wanna make you proud
I want something to live for
