One Small Break

One sets out to destroy
and one sets out to save
One will have all
that they love torn apart
One will never pay

One is born to trust
One is born to deceive
One is born to follow,
broken on their knees and wallow
That one is born to believe

Like a final kiss from a dying sun
a flash of light and then its done
a momentary shock, then it blows away
no one said you have to stay

Every star in the sky will die
right before your eyes
The land will erode
The ocean dries
By the time that you're ready
and you've planned it all
The bow is taken
and the curtain falls

Chorus:
Every second there's a choice
Another path to take
Every minute there's regret
and a chance for one small break
Every hour there's a moment
where that break will start to give
Every day there is a chance
it will be the last you live

There's a time you should use instinct
and a time to think things through
but you never know which one to use
until that time is through
You can swallow the pain
or you can choose
between climbing in a bottle
and climbing in a noose

(Chorus)

All it takes is a choice
All it takes is a cause
All it takes is a gain
All it takes is a loss
All it takes is a fault
You hope it's all in the plan
All it takes is the will
but you don't know if you can

One small break...
