Do you wonder what its all about
When your dreams let you down
And leave you stranded in the
Darkness on the edge of town
If you feel that helplessness sink deep into your bones
Don't be discouraged
You've made it safe through worse before
Don't turn away
So you think about getting out
Take your shot, try to make it count
You can't be confined here anymore
But one day come back and tear it down
You don't want to be someone things just happen to
Without cause or provocation
You were meant for something more
Don't turn away
Now I'm standing with my arms out
And my feet planted in the ground
I'll be your mansion on the hill
When daylights fading out
So don't turn away
Don't turn away
Don't turn away
