I  have a present:  it is the present.
You  have  to learn to  find it within  you.
If  you can learn  to love  it,
 You just might like  it.
You  can't live without  it.
 There's a  million open windows.
 I'm passing  these open windows.
 I'm  passing these open windows.
There  is plenty  to  criticize.
It  gets so easy  to narrow these eyes.
But  these eyes will  stay wide.
I  will stay young.
Young  and dumb inside.
I  have just begun  to forget  my lines.
If  you could save  yourself,
you  could save us all.
Go  on living,  prove us wrong.
Your  leap of faith  could be  a well-timed smile.
Survival never goes  out of style.
I  have a message: save  your generation.
We're  killing each  other  by sleeping in.
Finnegan, begin  again.
This  one can be won.
One  can become two.
Two  can pick and choose.
You  could be the first.
You  have to learn  to learn  from your mistakes.
You  can afford  to lose  a little face.
The  things you break,
Some  can't be replaced.
A  simple rule: every  day be sure you wake.
 (play the "survival" part twice at the end and end with F)
