You lie awake
But the world's asleep
You made mistakes

But now's the time

Alarm goes off
But you feel too weak
Your soul's too heavy
For your feet
But now's the time
Chorus: ( D , A , Bm , G , A in this order throughout the whole song )
Open your eyes
And know you're free to come alive
You gotta live it while you can
We only get one life
Look to the sky
Don't ever let it pass you by
You gotta live it while you can
We only get one life
You lost your faith
And your life is cursed
You've cried so hard
Inside it hurts
But now's the time

Outside the sun is coming up
Inside you think you've given up
But now's the time
Open your eyes
And know you're free to come alive
You gotta live it while you can
We only get one life
Look to the sky
Don't ever let it pass you by
You gotta live it while you can
We only get one life
One life
It's time to stand up and fight
It's time for making it right
We only get one life
One life, one life
And when it feels like a lie
I'll be your reason to try
We only get one life
Open your eyes
And know you're free to come alive
You gotta live it while you can
We only get one life
Look to the sky
Don't ever let it pass you by
You gotta live it while you can
We only get one life
One life
It's time to stand up and fight
It's time for making it right
We only get one life
One life, one life
And when it feels like a lie
I'll be your reason to try
We only get one life
One life
