I'm walking in an open field looking for some space to fill
I believe there's something left to hold
So even when the sun goes down and there's no one around
I'm standing in the freedom of my soul

And the truth of the matter is still the same
It's that you and I, we will not be here forever
The truth of the matter is still the same

I'm ready to stand
Ready to stand
Ready to stand
Ready to stand
Stand, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I know, I know, know I

I can see the earth from here, I can see it shake in fear
I can see it falling to its knees
But you know I'm not the same, my burden is a burning flame
I hold it up for all the world to see

But the truth of the matter is still the same
It's that you and I, we will not be here forever
The truth of the matter is still the same

I'm ready to stand
Ready to stand
Ready to stand
Ready to stand
Stand, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I know, I know, know I

I'm walking in an open field, looking for some space to fill
I believe there's something left to hold
And I can see the earth from here, I can see it shake in fear
I'm standing in the freedom of my soul
So even when the sun goes down, and there's no one around
Even when the sun goes down, even when the sun goes down
Even when the sun goes down, even when the sun goes down
Even when the sun goes down, even when the sun goes down

I stand
Ready to stand
You know, you know, you know, you know
I stand
Ready to stand
Stand, ready to stand
