Can we decide on how we want to live our lives?
 
 Should we continue as we fall?
 
 Are we expecting to be chosen by a God
 
 Or are we trapped within these walls?
 
  
  'Cause I want to believe
 
 That compassion could be the cure
 
 There is no one to turn to
 
 When times are hard you're standing on your own
  
 
 The winds are blowing harder
 
 Yet we stand still
 
 'Cause sometimes to try is not enough
  
 
 Right here we're going nowhere
 
 No one believes
 
 That happiness can't be bought
  
 
 Walking together we can reach the mountain top
 
 'Cause every step will make us strong
 
 Even if others tell us we should be apart
 
 Both of us know where we belong
  
 
 And I do not believe
 
 That your riches will make you whole
 
 The image you abandon
 
 Is part of you whoever you become
  
 
 The winds are blowing harder
 
 Yet we stand still
 
 'Cause sometimes to try is not enough
  
 
 Right here we're going nowhere
 
 No one believes
 
 That happiness can't be bought
  
 
 Right here we'll stay
 
 Right here we're standing tall all alone
  
 
 The winds are blowing harder
 
 Yet we stand still
 
 'Cause sometimes to try is not enough
  
 
 Right here we're going nowhere
 
 No one believes
 
 That happiness can't be bought
