Learning To Live (11:30)
    - John Myung

 There was no time for pain
 No energy for anger
 The sightlessness of hatred slips away
 Walking through winter streets alone
 He stops and takes a breath
 With confidence and self control

 I look at the world and see no understanding
 I'm waiting to find some sense of strength
 I'm begging you from the bottom of my heart to show me understanding

 I need to live life
 Like some people never will
 So find me kindness
 Find me beauty
 Find me truth
 When temptation brings me to my knees
 And I lay here drained of strength
 Show me kindness
 Show me beauty
 Show me truth

 The ways that your heart sounds makes all the difference
 It's what decides if you'll endure the pain that we all feel
 The way that your heart beats makes all the difference
 In learning to live
 Here before me is my soul
 I'm learning to live
 I won't give up
 Till I've no more to give

 Listening to the city
 Whispering its violence
 I set out watching from above
 The 90's bring new questions
 New solutions to be found
 I fell in love to be let down

 Once again we dance in the crowd
 At times a step away
 From a common fear that's all spread out
 It won't listen to what you say
 Once you're touched you stand alone
 To face the bitter fight
 Once I reached for love
 And now I reach for life

 Another chance to lift my life
 Free the sensation in my heart
 To ride the wings of dreams into changing horizons
 It brings inner peace within my mind,
 As I'm lifted from where I've split my life
 I hear an innocent voice
 I hear kindness, beauty and truth

 The way your heart sounds makes all the difference
 It's what decides if you'll endure the pain that we all feel
 The way your heart beats makes all the difference
 In learning to live
 Spread before you is your soul
 So forever hold the dreams within our hearts
 Through nature's inflexible grace
 I'm learning to live
