We wear it on our face 

We keep up with the pace and don’t slow down 

But perfection without grace 

Is such a lonely place to be found 

We go ‘round and ‘round and never really move at all



Oh, we are bruised and destined to lose doing this alone

Oh, let it fall and cover us all – this grace that’s not our own



See it in our eyes

We’re running for the prize, don’t burn out

But without a hand to hold

We’ll never really know what life’s about

We go ‘round and ‘round and never really move at all



Let’s live like we’re alive 

We’ll take the pain in stride

We’ll learn from our mistakes and be glad we ever tried 

Let’s live like we’re alive 

Live like we’re alive and run with him into the night!
