Power On

( listen)

When all your tears seem shed in vain
and all your prayers sound like complaining
Lift yourself up off of your knees
and power on

No explanation no reasons why
the way we live the way we die
Lift yourself up off of your knees
and power on

You feel you've fallen from your own grace
and you can't recognize your own face
You see the sunset and the long road you left behind
and we're all running out of time

And when you can't cure the disease
Forgive yourself give your heart ease
Lift yourself up off of your knees
and power on

If the news is too late and too little
keep both your eyes straight up the middle
Lift yourself up off of your knees
and power on

The chains of fear swing all around
If you don't duck they'll knock you down
Lift yourself up off of your knees
and power on
