It is now that my life is mine 
In this short time I have on earth 
And my longing has brought me here 
All I lacked and all I gained 

And yet it’s the way that I chose 
My trust was far beyond words 
That has shown me a little bit 
Of the heaven I've never found 

I want to feel I'm alive 
All my living days 
I will live as I desire 
I want to feel I'm alive 
Knowing I was good enough 

I have never lost who I was 
I have only left it sleeping 
Maybe I never had a choice 
Just the will to stay alive 

All I want is to be happy 
Being who I am 
All my living days
I see day arise from night 

I am here and my life is only mine 
And the heaven I thought it was there 
I'll discover it there somewhere 

I want to feel that I have lived my life!
