Have you ever been afraid
To do what comes naturally
As if all you ever believed
Let you down too often
And if I seem aimless
Then please excuse my caution
But I don't know where to begin
I don't know if this is the time
To try again
And when I close my eyes
I can almost see myself
Standing
Have you ever been afraid
To do what comes easily
As if all you ever conceived
Was never quite certain
And if I seem anxious
Then please excuse my tension
But I can't wait much longer
I hope that this is the time
To try again
And when I close my eyes
I can almost see myself
Kneeling
One step forward
One step backward
Either way
It's chance I take
But I can't find
The courage in me
To face this alone
One step into light
One step into night
Either way
It's a choice I make
But I can't find
The courage in me
To face this alone
And if I seem reckless
The please excuse my conviction
But I know what I must do
I know that this is the time
To try again
And when I close my eyes
I can almost see myself
Praying
