The Gates
Take my word and try
I've known they saw you cry
So many times in life
To open up your broken heart
I know you are not naive
And life can be so mean
Just close your eyes and hold the key
That opens up the gates
(Never gonna stop, never gonna stop)
Don't cry
(I don't wanna take another shot, take another lie)
Rejoice
(I don't wanna lose all my control, lose all of my mind)
This life
(I just wanna try to make you smile)
Just begun
Break the mold, make a move
Take my hand if you want to
And if you dare we can just love
All that's left for us to live
Change the world, change your heart
Take the chance that you'll be fine
So we can move and sing that part
Of what's left for us to find
Lift your face and smile
I know it's been a while
Open up your eyes
And do enough to hold your breath
A life is not enough
And sometimes it is rough
Just hold the keys
And let me help you open up the gates
(Never gonna stop, never gonna stop)
Don't cry
(I don't wanna take another shot, take another lie)
Rejoice
(I don't wanna lose all my control, lose all of my mind)
This life
(I just wanna try to make you smile)
Just begun
Break the mold, make a move
Take my hand if you want to
And if you dare we can just love
All that's left for us to live
Change the world, change your heart
Take the chance that you'll be fine
So we can move and sing that part
Of what's left for us to find
Enjoy the night and day
Say what you want to say
And if you want to stay
Then take my word and play
These moments that we laugh
The moments that we lived
And if it's not enough
I'll hold you here so close
Break the mold, make a move
Take my hand if you want to
And if you dare we can just love
All that's left for us to live
Change the world, change your heart
Take the chance that you'll be fine
So we can move and sing that part
Of what's left for us to find
Left for us to find
Left for us to try
Left for us to live
And left for us to fight
I've known they saw you cry
So many times in life
To open up your broken heart
I know you are not naive
And life can be so mean
Just close your eyes and hold the key
That opens up the gates
(Never gonna stop, never gonna stop)
Don't cry
(I don't wanna take another shot, take another lie)
Rejoice
(I don't wanna lose all my control, lose all of my mind)
This life
(I just wanna try to make you smile)
Just begun
Break the mold, make a move
Take my hand if you want to
And if you dare we can just love
All that's left for us to live
Change the world, change your heart
Take the chance that you'll be fine
So we can move and sing that part
Of what's left for us to find
Lift your face and smile
I know it's been a while
Open up your eyes
And do enough to hold your breath
A life is not enough
And sometimes it is rough
Just hold the keys
And let me help you open up the gates
(Never gonna stop, never gonna stop)
Don't cry

This life

Break the mold, make a move
Take my hand if you want to
And if you dare we can just love
All that's left for us to live
Change the world, change your heart
Take the chance that you'll be fine
So we can move and sing that part
Of what's left for us to find

So we can move and sing that part
Of what's left for us to find
Left for us to find
Left for us to try
Left for us to live
And left for us to fight
