Stand up tall, reach out your hand Cut through the wind, and make a stand The paint within brings out a map of your own To the left and the right, all we saw, stormy nights All the rough winds and waves, coming day after day And the values we had, were about to collapse Oh just where do we go next? And as we look down to the compass in hand Is it showing us the right direction? All we know is: Nobody here knows it for certain! So close your eyes and breathe in deeply And listen to your soul You'll see a path in front of you And you'll know just where you need to go So stand up tall, reach out your hand Cut through the wind, and make a stand Don't let the darkness win, just break through I'll do it my own way, that's what's best for me And you do it your way, that's how it's got to be We're moving forward now I'm ready But at times it's okay To get help on the way For the future ahead buring bright For what's ahead you see Is beyond your wildest dreams So stand up tall, reach out your hand Cut through the wind, and make a stand Don't let the darkness win, just break through We'll do it our own way, the best that we know With tears and doubts in tow, we'll go where we all wanna go The paint within brings colors of our own
