Life Is a Garden

you feel their eyes upon you
you hear their words behind you
what do they know about you?
they'll tell you what you should be
tell you what you should do
they'll never believe in you

somebody should have told you
it never comes easy
somebody should have told you that
there's no guarantees
that you lose it all
when you stop dreaming
there's no way to know
if you run away
there's no looking back

this is your time to stand up
this is the time to fight for
all that you know and you believe
you owe it to yourself to
find out what you're meant for
there's no way to know if you run

somebody should have told you
it never comes easy
somebody should have told you that
there's no guarantees
that you lose it all
when you stop dreaming
there's no way to know
if you run away
there's no looking back

they tell us who to be while ignoring all our dreams
so we'll throw it away
why is it they can't see we're who we want to be
we'll throw it away

why can't they see
that we'll never be who they want us to be
we'll never be
we have too many dreams
too many dreams to just throw them awa
