Acoustic Medley (Live in Athens)
Take a breath
Lift your head
Fill your lungs
Clear your chest
I've been trying
Trying
Trying since the day I was born
Stand in line
Follow through
Have respect
Tell the truth
I've been trying
Trying
Trying since the day that I could
Play it right
Note for note
Sing it better
Sell the show
I've been trying
Trying
Trying but can't tell anymore
I've been trying
Trying
Trying since the day I was born
They say I've got my whole life to live but 27 years have been
Spent while I've been trying to feel like enough
All these voices trying to tell me I'm not
I want what is true
Looking for some light to carry me through
Say, they say that trust it takes time
That it's a mountain to climb
I think that I am the reason why
I've been waiting for things to change in my heart again
I've been changing while waiting I'll keep taking steps for you
I've been changing but I'm still learning how to love
Roll with the punches
Fight through the fire
When the trouble comes baby
We can work our way around it
Love is a lesson to be learned with time
If we can't climb the mountain
Then we can work our way around it
Together
We can work our way around it
Together
We can work our way around it all
Dream boy go in wonder
Fill your heart with fire and thunder
Passion leads a man to love
But that alone is not enough
You've got to lay your body low
Cause if you love something enough you'll learn to let it go
And when you're afraid that this road has led you away
Let love find you
Let love bind you up
Let love guide you home
And remind your soul
Love will listen
I will listen to you
And when the pain is true
And your strength has fallen through
Whatever shadow that you hold
This is where your father's been and where you're gonna go
And when the day is finally here
To leave behind these broken years
I want my family by my side
I hope they'll know how hard I've tried
To live in love
To love in depth
Let wonder take away my breath
To give until there's nothing more
This is what I want to be remembered for
