Cease your soul's endeavor You should quit while you're ahead 'Cause few will make it ever Try the safer road instead How long 'til it gets better Ask yourself before you're dead If you're content with never By all means then go ahead Was it all wasted All we did to survive If we cut split and run now At least we can say that we tried Was it all wasted Every wall that we climbed Or maybe God was listening to Every single prayer that we cried Let's put this back together If it's not beyond repair But doubt was oh so clever And convinced me to despair The dark approaching weather Threatens everything to end But it won't last forever Yeah the sun will rise again Was it all wasted All we did to survive If we cut split and run now At least we can say that we tried Was it all wasted Every wall that we climbed Or maybe God was listening to Every single prayer that we cried Let's put all the past behind And faith by no fears confined Though the river we crossed is wide God will be on our side Was it all wasted All we did to survive If we cut split and run now At least we can say that we tried Was it all wasted Trying to keep hope alive Or maybe God was listening to Every single prayer that we cried Or maybe God was listening to Every single prayer that we cried Or maybe God was listening to Every single prayer that we cried
