On the day I chose to save, to protect
I made a promise to myself I won't neglect
If there is but a single life that I can save
Right now
By losing anything and everything
That I possess
I'll give it in a heartbeat
I will give it with a smile
'Cause this is the first I might have ever felt
A purpose in life
Don't conceal the scars that make you who you are
Hopelessness is a weapon you can raise up high
To save the lives you choosе
I will give all my might
I'll persevеre through these tears
All I am - All I can be now
It's all for you
In return, please oh please, don't you disappear on me
On the day I chose to save, to protect
I made a promise to myself I won't neglect
I'm hoping to get the life by the life
Right now
Is someone else is putting on the line
So I can fight
Losing in the end no longer scares me in the least
But the thought of giving up on winning just won't do
I will not - I will never run away again
I just want to throw down and fight
As the me I want to be
And I know it may seem like such
A stupid little thing
But if I know you're smiling
I will be alright
There's no point in becoming
The strongest of all
Just to be the one in charge
It's to keep in your life
And to have and to hold the ones
That matter most
If everything is taken from me
Even then
I know there's no way I could forget you
I will give all my might
I'll persevere through these tears
All I am - All I can be now
It's all for you
In return, please oh please, don't you disappear on me
On the day I chose to save, to protect
I made a promise to myself I won't neglect
Even when the light inside you starts to fade away
Carry on
Carry on
I made a promise to myself I won't neglect
If there is but a single life that I can save
Right now
By losing anything and everything
That I possess
I'll give it in a heartbeat
I will give it with a smile
'Cause this is the first I might have ever felt
A purpose in life
Don't conceal the scars that make you who you are
Hopelessness is a weapon you can raise up high
To save the lives you choosе
