Don't feel threatened
Nobody's here to break your heart
It's nothing new
The higher you get, the further you fall
I'm terrified too
 
Cuz we might get hurt
Just like we hurt others too
But life hurts
Does that mean it's not worth going through?
 
It rarely goes the way we would have chosen it
Sometimes all that we have left is to keep trying
 
It keeps on turning
No matter how hard I keep my eyes closed
Still, sometimes when the news
Shows me more than I can handle
 
I switch the channel
Cuz I can't let them take away my hopes
But life kills
Despite how unfair it is
 
It rarely goes the way we would have chosen it
Sometimes it shakes so hard you lose your grip
 
It rarely goes the way we would have chosen it


Sometimes all that we have left is to keep trying
 
There's so much we don't control
And even more we don't understand
On top of it all
 
There's you and me
Our mistakes and all we've learned
But life hurts
So when we fail we just have to pick ourselves up





It rarely goes the way we would have chosen it


Sometimes it shakes so hard you lose your grip





It rarely goes the way we would have chosen it


Sometimes all that we have left is to keep trying




All that we have left is to keep trying (X2).
