Haken - Because It's There lyrics

Life is a dream a gift we receive
To live and to love we forge the path

Our nightmare in birth (Dream this life)
Our struggle for worth (Forge a path)
In vain we carry on (Please take this gift)
Our mission to become (To live, to love)
Adapt to this world this chance we must take
We'll sing our song we'll play our hand

Why allow (Broken world)
This crooked fate? (Retaliate)
The tunnel's light (Accept defeat)
Is unmoving
(Don't be afraid) It burns your eyes
(Obscures the path) But, you persevere
(You must adapt) Because it's there

Climb, find your way
Scale high, don't look back
With hope you will find the life you seek

Judgement from birth criticize our worth
We struggled to uphold
Struck down, will we fold?

Climb, find your way
I wish I could be someone
Be the moon and be the sun
Ambition burned my wings ablaze
I shed a tear in these dark days
Scale high, don't look back
Tearing down the walls of love
Soaring through the fire above
Pride exists to be reclaimed, roll the dice
Don't lose the game with hope you will find
Carry the weight of the world
The summit says I'll prove my worth
Let me claim what's rightfully yours to
Take and mine to keep the life you seek
Stars begin to swarm around the path of fate
This tired ground
Challenge met but all the while
A mountain built on greed and guile
