No. 1

While we're alive in this troubling time where nobody can move
Take your heart, make it race!

I don't want to search for the one final truth
An answer to this fickle world
I just want to walk on the path that I choose
Pondering the endless possibilities

I take off my armor and feel on my cheek
The cold wind that whispers to me!
"There's no cause, and no worth
In lessons you learn selfishly
If you just protect yourself!"

I'm reaching my hand, a "number one"
As I point into the sky that lies beyond
I just wanna stand up high above and see just how far we have come
Take all the dissatisfaction that sits in my heart
Light the spark and ignite
Now's the time
We'll set our destiny alight!
We'll burn this veil made of lies!

If I should end up as the worst in the world
When it comes to fake alibis
Then I would accept that
If that's what it takes to do it
Even better than the rest!

They're reaching my hand, a "number one"
As my shadow's looking up to shout at me
To give all I can and not give up
Keep going and never retreat
Go get excited and keep it ignited
On days when nobody can fight
Now's the time
I'll set my worries all alight!

I never really felt inspiring quotes
Or precedents set by those before
Have ever applied to the challenges that I'm facing yet
Now all that I can do is hold on tight
To whatever this feeling is inside
I can't yet turn into words to be said

I'm reaching my hand, a "number one"
As I point it to the sky that lies beyond
I just wanna stand up high above and see just how far we have come
I'm only here by the blood, sweat, and tears
That I follow to get me along
Far beyond!

So look for the hands with "number one" pointing out
So you can just look out for the sign
And look for the friends that share the love and hope
For your goals in their minds
Take all the dissatisfaction that sits in my heart
Light the spark and ignite
Now's the time
We'll set our destiny alight!
We'll burn this veil made of lies!
