Doing Away With Hesitation

I hesitated once or twice I can't pay the price Take it by the grain of rice You're my living sacrifice Oh oooh… Ah oooh... I hesitated once or twice I can't pay the price Take it by the grain of rice You're my living sacrifice Oh oooh… Ah oooh... I hesitated once or twice Yet, I can't turn out the light, the light... I can't pay the price, price Even if I go outside into the night… I hesitated once or twice Now, I have to pay the price I feel the urge to cry, the urge to cry Can't deny; this time, I'll give it a try Take it by the grain of rice and be mine, my long-lost dear You're my fire and ice - oh, come on and just hold me near Oh oooh… Ah oooh... I hesitated once or twice Yet, I can't turn out the light, the light... I can't pay the price, price Even if I go outside into the night… I hesitated once or twice Now, I have to pay the price I feel the urge to cry, the urge to cry Can't deny; this time, I'll give it a try I've been sober for a while now Sober from my addictions somehow God is always there for me, no matter what I don't even care if this is a hit song or not I've been sober for a while now Sober from my addictions somehow God is always there for me, no matter what I don't even care anymore…I'll give it my best shot I hesitated once or twice I can't pay the price Take it by the grain of rice You're my living sacrifice Oh oooh… Ah oooh… I hesitated once or twice I can't pay the price Take it by the grain of rice You're my living sacrifice Oh oooh… Ah oooh... No longer do I feel hesitation No longer do I feel so frustrated No longer do I feel agitation No longer do I feel disoriented I feel somewhat hopeful and joyous I don't feel alone, sad and anxious The future has so much in store For you and I, a future I adore I feel like shutting down, Yet rising up once more With an upside down frown And a heart that will soar
