Píseň: Know The Difference

Interpret:
Stratovarius
Album:
Elements
To see the things in a brand new light 
Not to give up without a fight 
To surrender is not in my sight 
I'm a child of the universe 
In the noisy confusion of life 
Where uncertainty rules my way 
It's so easy to go astray 
I got to keep strong and bold 


Give me a way to accept things 
I cannot change anymore 
The courage to change anymore 
And the wisdom to know the difference 


In the midst of the darkness 
There's a voice that you know so well 
Lifts you up from the madness where you dwell 
Don't give in to the hopelesness 
Keep the innocence in your heart 
And the end before your start 
Be the warrior of the light 
Don't give up without a fight
