Lyrics

All we see - Is it real or is it - just a dream
We’re living every day in - disbelief
And all we’ve ever known has - ceased to be
The world is upside down

How much distance can we stand
We all need a helping hand
But now the beast is laying waste
To everything that we’ve embraced
And the ones that roll the dice
Leave the rest to pay the price

So let’s take one day at a time
‘Cause in the end the sun will shine
Let’s take one day at a time
And out of this we’ll climb

Take me back - back to yesterday and - to what we had
Things were different then and - not so bad
We didn’t know how good it was - and that’s what’s sad
We just assumed tomorrow

And now everything has changed
Will we ever be the same
‘Cause now the beast is laying waste
To everything that we’ve embraced
And the ones that roll the dice
Leave the rest to pay the price

So let’s take one day at a time
‘Cause in the end the sun will shine
Let’s take one day at a time
And out of this we’ll climb

Let’s take one day at a time (We gotta take it all in stride)}
‘Cause in the end the sun will shine (The sun will rise again)}Let’s take one day at a time (We’re gonna find some peace of mind)}And out of this we’ll climb
Out of this we’ll shine
