Stand up tall, reach out your hand
Cut through the wind, and make a stand
The paint within brings out a map of your own

To the left and the right, all we saw, stormy nights
All the rough winds and waves, coming day after day
And the values we had, were about to collapse
Oh just where do we go next?

And as we look down to the compass in hand
Is it showing us the right direction?
All we know is: Nobody here knows it for certain!

So close your eyes and breathe in deeply
And listen to your soul
You'll see a path in front of you
And you'll know just where you need to go

So stand up tall, reach out your hand
Cut through the wind, and make a stand
Don't let the darkness win, just break through
I'll do it my own way, that's what's best for me
And you do it your way, that's how it's got to be
We're moving forward now I'm ready

But at times it's okay
To get help on the way
For the future ahead buring bright
For what's ahead you see
Is beyond your wildest dreams

So stand up tall, reach out your hand
Cut through the wind, and make a stand
Don't let the darkness win, just break through
We'll do it our own way, the best that we know
With tears and doubts in tow, we'll go where we all wanna go
The paint within brings colors of our own
