another hour in another day  i speak in all directions what i think they want to hear me say  another day becomes a lost and lonely night  and i don't understand why nothing feels right  then a voice comes echoing in - into the dark and then  the voice echoes in my head  and these are the words it said -  CHORUS  why don't you put down your guard  why must it be so hard  to have a little faith in me, have a little faith in me  another black night becomes another grey dawn  i'm waking with the feeling i've already done something wrong  trials and errors 'til i make it home again  and i'm feeling my resistance wearing paper thin  (then a voice)  i hear the words - i get out of bed  i can't sleep with all this noise in my head  i find my feet leading me down the hall  where i stop - look in the mirror - hanging on the wall  then i recognize the voice i'm giving myself a choice  more trust - a little less doubt  is all i've been talking about - talking to myself about  why don't i put down my guard  why must i make it so hard  to have a little faith in me?
