[Verse 1: Casey Lee Williams]
It used to feel like a fairytale
Now it seems we were just pretending
We’d fix our world
Then on our way to a happy ending
Then it turned out life
Is far less like a bedtime story
Than a tragedy with no big reveal of the hero’s glory

[Pre-Chorus: Casey Lee Williams]
And 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

[Chorus: Casey Lee Williams]
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 live
[Verse 2: Casey Lee Williams]
Can 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? (Torn and tattered)
Can we keep this up when we know that every hope has shattered?

[Pre-Chorus: Casey Lee Williams]
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 lose

[Chorus: Casey Lee Williams]
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 live
[Bridge: Casey Lee Williams]
When 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 gone
We can cry our lives away
But if they were here, they’d say
"Go forward, you must keep moving on"
(Ooh, ooh)

[Interlude with vocalizations]

[Chorus: Casey Lee Williams]
Let’s just live, just one day
Let’s forget about our problems
Let’s fall in love with life and just be free
The sun will never fade
The night won’t steal our day
Let’s dance and laugh and love
And let’s just live
