Lyrics

In Your Hand

It's all or nothing

That's how you've always been

All or nothing

With nothing in between

You can't compromise

You can't quit while you're ahead

You won't see reason

You think that's giving in

We try to tell you

But you're not listening

Now I realise

The only help you'll take

Chorus:

It's in your hand

The power to change

To make a stand

To come of age

It's in your hand

It's worse than pointless

To try to talk to you

You've made your mind up

There's nothing we can do

Gets worse every day

You'd think you had it planned

Throw it all away

Chorus rpt:

In your hand but you won't use it

Rather throw your life away

(Rpt above couplet)

It's all or nothing

So nothing it'll be

You see I've made my mind up

And I won't intervene

Throw it all away

Throw it all away I don't care

Throw it all away
