Everybody loves a rose,

But will you be thankful for the thorns?

Love is easy when you're loved,

But do you curse another when you're alone?





Chorus:

Oh, I give my life to You so I can gain it back again

Oh, I stand solid while the paradigm is shifting





You say live and let live,

But people are dying everyday

And you way what I don't know won't hurt me

But if what I do not know

Is the very thing I need,

Then I say





Humanity sees truth through a shattered window pane

That blocks the view,

And plants the seed

So we draw the curtains to close but I say

That the sun can still shine behind a closed mind

And sticks and stones do hurt

When tossed from the tongue of mankind
