I kept the right ones out and let the wrong ones in
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
There were times in my life when I was goin' insane
Tryin' to walk through the pain
When I lost my grip and I hit the floor
Yeah, I thought I could leave but couldn't get out the door
I was so sick and tired of livin' a lie
I was wishin' that I would die
Chorus:
It's amazing, with the blink of an eye you finally see the light
It's amazing when the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
It's amazing and I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight
That one last shot's a permanent vacation
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Life's a journey not a destination
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings
You have to learn to crawl before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk
I was out on the street, just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay alive
Chorus:
It's amazing, with the blink of an eye you finally see the light
It's amazing when the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
It's amazing and I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight
Desperate hearts, desperate hearts
Did you wanna see without and give it out now (or whatever...)
Ow, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah, ya ka kow, ya ka ka ka kow
