Here's the dilemma
I'm set on this course I can't escape
Caught in a struggle
Longing for rescue from this place
If I had the power
To fix myself you know I would
So I'll keep on waiting....

The lights go up exposing all that you see
I am a tragedy
Bound by this role, I play the lead
Could You write a new ending?
Tear out these pages, rewrite this story.

I'm finished fighting
All of my battles are in vain
And i'm tired of trying
Trying to make things work my way
There's not much to salvage
But You see something here to save
So I'll keep on waiting....

The lights go up exposing all that you see
I am a tragedy
Bound by this role, I play the lead
Could You write a new ending?
Tear out these pages, rewrite this story.
I am a tragedy
Bound by this role, I play the lead
Could You write a new ending?
Tear out these pages, rewrite this story.


I can't survive any longer
I'm calling You, calling You
I won't scrape by on my own here
I'm calling You, calling You
Take me away
You've got plans for me, I'm listening
Take me away
You're my one hope for escape

I am a tragedy
Bound by this role, I play the lead
Could You write a new ending?
Tear out these pages, rewrite this story.
Cause, I am a tragedy
Bound by this role, I play the lead
Could You write a new ending?
Tear out these pages, rewrite this story.
Tear out these pages, rewrite this story.
Tear out these pages, rewrite this story.
