Lina CM - In the Arena (feat. Jensen Lescarbeau) Lyrics

I could see, sort of far away
I could sense, almost a good day
I could live, I could die
I could find the strength I need to stay
"Come, come here, don't delay"
I did run toward you!
Loved you!
And you moved away

I believed. When we met
I was told a story, like Romeo and Juliet
I did love, must forget
Must rewrite, relive, steps that I regret
Was deceived, was upset
And the worst to happen hadn't happened yet
Was then lied to, I lost the bet
And you were all gone -- or just so hard to get

I was fooled, I was swayed
I was told again to come today
I could see in your hand
Something shiny, same thing you had yesterday
"Come, come here, don't delay"
I did run toward you
I loved you!
And you moved away

I believed. When we met
I was told a story, like Romeo and Juliet
I did love, must forget
Must rewrite, relive, steps that I regret
Was deceived, was upset
And the worse to happen hadn't happened yet
Was then lied to, I lost the bet
And you were all gone -- or just so hard to get

Vibrant colors, golden thread
Trumpet sounds blasting through the air
People cheer, I feel dread
Capes and lancers have declared warfare
I could dream, but this is a nightmare
I could live to fight another day
How naive, unaware
I have wounds and hurts most everywhere

I'll be strong, I'll survive
I must forgive, forget, rebuild, and then move on
I'm in love, I'm alive
If again you want to hurt me, please don't come
I believed, how could I
You didn't love, or care, or want me at all
I am lost, must defy
Must regain the strength that once I had

I was fooled, I was swayed
I did try, but couldn't stay away
I'm still here, nearly died
I choose to live to fight another day
Dreams come true
Dreams get shattered as well
I had to pick up the pieces
Your love wasn't there
