| Triumph awaits. |
| Triumph awaits. |
| Triumph awaits… |
| Triumph awaits. |
| Sometimes we have to watch our whole lives fall apart, |
| before we can rebuild them again, |
| a greater foundation. |
| We watch our whole lives… |
| fall apart (Sometimes we have to watch our whole lives…) |
| Rebuild them again… |

| a greater foundation) a |
