Right Now

Right now people are dreaming,
Of lives they never had,
And the people that are living them,
Are saying it's too bad
Right now someone is losing,
All of their faith,
And that little thing that we call hope,
Has been completely erased...

Right now...you bleed...
Because you...refuse to see...

Right now!
Stop living life,
Like your heart will break
Right now!
Stop being such a coward,
You'd be surprised at what you can take
Right now!
Stop denying yourself the blame,
Stand up for the choices that you make
Start living...right now
There's no other way out...

Right now children are crying,
Because their parents have gone away
They are orphaned in a world that doesn't care,
And never seems to change
And right now they are losing,
All of their faith
That little thing that we call hope,
Is being completely erased!

Right now...they bleed...
Because they...just can't see...

Right now!
Stop living life,
Like your heart will break
Right now!
Stop being such a coward,
You'd be surprised at what you can take
Right now!
Stop denying yourself the blame,
Stand up for the choices that you make
Start living...right now
There's no other way out...

Right now...we forget to try
Right now...somewhere somebody dies
Right here, right now, there are the answers

Life is full of second chances...

Right now!
Stop living life,
Like your heart will break
Right now!
Stop being such a coward,
You'd be surprised at what you can take
Right now!
Stop denying yourself the blame,
Stand up for the choices that you make
Start living...right now
There's no other way out!
