Can you tell me why
We all run from the hurt inside?
[People wonder about why we run from what is hurting us deep inside] There's no need to cry [Of the hurt you're going through, there's no need to cry]. Dry your eyes and take a breath [Dry your eyes from the pain and take a breath].It's life or death [It's a matter of life or death] Can you tell me what you're waiting for? [What and who are you waiting for?] If you lose it all
And it just won't feel the same [You lose what you have, your life won't feel the same without God] In the fight to carry on
You stand and face the rain [You fight to carry on the hardships of life, you face the stand and face the sadness your life] And as you watch it fall
You learn to live again [Christ is telling you that when you're in Heaven, the hurt inside you will go away and you'll be living eternal life] It isn't all that bad
When you're still standing in the end [When you believe Christ is the only one who can make the hurt inside you go away, you know the pain is coming to an end]. And all the voices cry out
They pull you up tear you down [People say to you the world's a bitter place and there's nothing we can do about, so that's what brings you down]
Then that one voice
Whispers your name again [Only if you believe Christ is the one that can fix it]
