The Chance lyrics

When everything eternal
Seems to fade to nothing
I try to counterbalance
If only to see it through
What have you got to offer?
I don't think I'll take it for granted
I'll simply sit here vacant
Resting, waiting, hoping to be found
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/h/hundred_reasons/the_chance.html ]
This is the chance I've taken
But only this once

Your begging and choosing
Always seems to go unnoticed
We don't deserve the lie
So just for a moment be honest
Whatever you have to offer
I'll try to protect it
Correct me if I am wrong
But I think you are always on my side

We will try to make the most of it somehow
