One Chance
by Soren Anderson
January 19, 2010

Courage isn’t carnage
Not shattering the glass
That keeps us in world of true
Defying words that crack

Standing up
Not giving in
To the frozen stare
Fate’ll look you in the eyes
Giving you a scare

Breaking rules isn’t bad
Just not always right
But you’ve gotta do what
You have to do
Never giving up the fight

Get up off your knees
Feel wind rushing in your ears
Obliterate the sound
The lies that you hear

You’ll only get one chance
To do everything right
So take the chance you only get
One time in your life
