Somewhere beyond this crushing darkness, there must be more.
There is only guilt and all of my remorse.
It's here i'll make my stand against all the odds.
Will I be outspoken, will I be looked down upon.
Sometimes this road seems endless, and nothing's worth the wait.
But a chance to saddle up, must be taken.
The hour glass is breaking and time is pouring out.
Time waits for no man, so take that chance, take that chance to ride.

Will you give in? Or let hope take you.
What choices will you make when ghastly faces know your name?
Will you give in? Or let hope take you.
How will you break the clutches when afflictions bring you down?

So here I'll stand, on the edge of everything, and I won't look back with dismay.
And it all seems so strange the way my destiny twists and turns.

And I begin to wonder. I won't let my demons, become one with myself.
While angels on my shoulders outstretch their arms.
I will not be cowed into forsaking my beliefs.
Shackles that weighed me down, have all been cast into the wind.
Hell yeah!
So take that chance to ride.
So take that chance to ride.

Will you give in? Or let hope take you.
What choices will you make when ghastly faces know your name?
Will you give in? Or let hope take you.
How will you break the clutches when afflictions bring you down?
So don't give in. Just let hope take you.
What choices will you make when ghastly faces know your name?
So don't give in. Just let hope take you.
How will you break the clutches when afflictions bring you down?
When afflictions bring you down?
