I wish you could lose yourself sometimes and be 
All the things that I remember from your history 
I wish you could lessen your grip and let go 
Of your life and all the things you know

But I will be the one to lead you 
If you listen I will teach you 
All the ways that I can make you come alive 
I will be the one to take you 
From the lies that almost break you 
From the days and nights you wonder why 
Just trust in me I'll make you come alive

I wish you would stumble, trip, and fall on through 
To that other someone speaking up inside of you 
I wish you would take some time and just take care 
Not to lose the person you find there

But I will be the one to lead you 
If you listen I will teach you 
All the ways that I can make you come alive 
I will be the one to take you 
From the lies that almost break you 
From the days and nights you wonder why 
Just trust in me I'll make you come alive

What ever happened to the one I knew back then
The way you'd fight for all of the things 
You thought were right and always said
"Just stand up tall for all that you believe in all the time 
And life will work out fine for you and me, you'll see" 

But I will be the one to take you 
From the lies that couldn't break you 
From the days and nights that passed you by 
Just trust in me I'll make you come alive

But I will be the one to lead you 
If you listen I will teach you 
All the ways that I can make you come alive 
I will be the one to take you 
From the lies that almost break you 
From the days and nights you wonder why 
Just trust in me I'll make you come alive
