[Verse 1] Every bright branch asks my name Every good road makes its claim I stand where all the colors split Afraid to lose what I might miss [Pre-Chorus] My hands shake; the hours run I can't become everyone [Chorus] I choose this life, I choose this day Let other futures turn away One living heart, one honest try I plant my weight and answer why [Verse 2] The open field keeps widening Each maybe pulls like gravity Then your voice cuts through the noise Not every choice destroys a choice [Pre-Chorus] My hands shake; still I decide I let the unchosen drift aside [Chorus] I choose this life, I choose this day Let other futures turn away One living heart, one honest try I plant my weight and answer why [Bridge] If I am wrong, I'll learn the ground If I am lost, I'll turn around But I won't wait until I'm sure To make a life that's truly mine [Final Chorus] I choose this life, I choose this day I give my whole heart what I name One living heart, one honest try I plant my weight and answer why
