I tell myself that this was all a dream that woke me up last night,
Couldn't tell my left from right, or anything in between,
I saw myself as wise in their eyes, I looked my very best,
But in my dreams I was a broken man, who failed the final test.
And everyone turned away,
I was so alone,
You're facing the judgment day,
When my soul's called home.
When I leave this place, will I leave a trace of the things I've done?
What about love?
Have I made a place in the race I've run?
It scared me, so I took to my knees and asked the Lord for help,
To let me see myself, and who I was called to be,
I thought about the truth I believed; was I really trying?
And if my light was shining for the outside world to see.
Don't throw your life away,
I'll be on my own,
You're facing the judgment day,
When my soul's called home.
When I leave this place, will I leave a trace of the things I've done?
What about love?
Have I made a place in the race I've run?
When I leave this place, will I see the faces of the ones I love?
For my last night on Earth, will they know I ran my race and won?
Don't throw your life away,
I'll be on my own,
You're facing the judgment day,
When my soul's called home.
When I leave this place, will I leave a trace of the things I've done?
What about love?
Have I made a place in the race I've run?
When I leave this place, will I see the faces of the ones I love?
For my last night on Earth, will they know I ran my race and won?
