sitting alone up in your empty room in the stillness of the night where all the many dreams that used to carry you are no longer in sight you put your feelings down in black and white a sad disturbing reply that you don t really want to face another night so you re saying goodbye but did you know that you re saying goodbye to a lifetime well i ve got to tell you there s another way to be free to be complete but you ve got to make it thru another day and deny you re own defeat and i m here to tell you there s another way to comsume a hungry heart all the love you need is just a prayer away let him in to where you are you ve made it to the edge of seventeen thinking now you ve reached the end of the line but there s so much of life that you have never seen now you won t have the time you say that you don t hear the music play so your ready to give up the dance now that nothing really matters anyway oh you give up your chance but do you know that you give up your chance at a lifetime  well i ve got to tell you there s another way to be free to be complete but you ve got to make it thru another day and deny you re own defeat and i m here to tell you there s another way to comsume a hungry heart jesus is just a prayer away let him in to where you are
