In a big country dreams stay with you
Like a lover's voice across the mountainside
Stay alive, here we go

I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered
You can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered

I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert
But I can live and breathe
And see the sun in wintertime

So take that look out there, it doesn't fit you
Because it's happened doesn't mean you've been discarded
Pull your head off the floor and come up screamin'
Cry out for everything you ever might have wanted

I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered
But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered
See ya, let's go
