I want to know why
You're letting this die
Without the blink of an eye
You say that you need time
I say you'll be fine

If you would only see
Like you did before
You became imprisoned
Can I reopen the door?

You say it doesn't matter
Then tell me what does?
And why that isn't what
You've been thinking of?
You say it's never easy
Then tell me what it was?
Is it never worth the pain?
Could you believe it was
When life keeps living
That's what life keeps giving
To us

Once we were one mind
Drifting in one time
And ever true
We were friends
But something is gone from my
Picture of this life

If we could only see
Like we did before
We became imprisoned
Can I reopen the door

You say it doesn't matter
Then tell me what does?
And why that isn't what
You've been thinking of?
You say it's never easy
Then tell me what it was?
Is it never worth the pain?
'Cause you believe it was
When life keeps living
That's what life keeps giving
To us

The hope has vanished from your eyes
You were my faith and one truth, oh
There's every reason to get through
Oh, and you're why I know there's a reason

If we could only see
Like we did before
We became imprisoned
Can I reopen the door

You say it doesn't matter
Then tell me what does?
And why that isn't what
What you've been thinking of?
You say it's never easy
Then tell me what it was?
Is it never worth the pain?
What you believe it was

You say it doesn't matter
Then tell me what does?
And why that isn't what
What you've been thinking of?
You say it's never easy
Oh, then tell me what it was?
Is it never worth the pain?
But you believe it was
When life keeps living
That's what life keeps giving
To us
To us
To us

Keep on living
Oh
