In Your Face
Shout/Tamplin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a dark place
With a strong heart
When it feels life is passing you by
To stand tall
Until a new day
'Cause yesterday is just what came before
To be free (To be free)
To dream on (We just got to keep on breathing)
To hold on tight to what one wants to be
In life
There's one heaven
And we hold that life, in our hands
To find light
In a dark place
With a strong heart
When it feels life is passing you by
To stand tall
Until a new day
'Cause yesterday is just what came before
Now those dark days
Are so behind us
And a bright new sun shines
Down on this, our land
But there's still
Far too much crying
And we let those tears
Slip through our hands
And we let those tears
Slip through our hands
And we let those tears
Slip through our hands
