I can learn to resist
Anything but temptation
I can learn to co-exist
With anything but painI can learn to compromise
Anything but my desires
I can learn to get along
With all the things I can't explainI can learn to resist
Anything but frustration
I can learn to persist
With anything but aiming lowI can learn to close my eyes
To anything but injustice
I can learn to get along
With all the things I don't knowI can learn to resist
Anything but temptation
I can learn to co-exist
With anything but painI can learn to compromise
Anything but my desires
I can learn to get along
With all the things I can't explainYou can surrender
Without a prayer
But never really pray
Pray without surrenderYou can fight
Fight without ever winning
But never ever win
Win without a fightI can learn to close my eyes
To anything but injustice
I can learn to get along
With all the things I don't knowI can learn to close my eyes
To anything but injustice
I can learn to get along
With all the things I don't know
