Second Chance

This is a song I caught a video of on Fuse. Second Chance is a song about finding yourself and following your dreams even if other people don't understand or try to pull you down. It's about knowing who you are and taking chances for your dreams and embracing your passion even if everyone around you seems to be pulling you in the opposite direction.

I love the video even more than the song. In fact, if it weren't for the video I probably wouldn't have even been posting about this song. It depicts a story of a girl who loves to dance and she practices alone in her basement. She gets really good all by herself and she wants to go to a dance audition, but her parents want her to stay and work for money because of the bills they have to pay. So she runs away at night and leaves the life she has with her friends and boyfriend and her family to chase her dreams.

I think this song has a powerful message and I also love "sometimes goodbye is a second chance" because it gave her a chance at greatness and happiness and it also gave her family a second chance to be more united over her leaving and get along better. So please enjoy the video and the song! Even if the lead singer can be a little melodramatic in the video lol.

Second Chance

Second Chance- Shinedown

My eyes are open wide
And by the way, I made it 
Through the day
I watched the world outside
By the way, I'm leaving out Today

Well I just saw Hayley's comet, shooting
Said "why you always running in place?
Even the man in the moon disappeared
Somewhere in the stratosphere"

Tell my mother,
Tell my father
I've done the best I can
To make them realize
This is my life
I hope they understand
I'm not angry, I'm just saying...
Sometimes goodbye 
Is a second chance

Please don't cry
One tear for me
I'm not afraid of
What I have to say
This is my one and
Only voice
So listen close, it's
Only for today

Well I just saw Hayley's comet, shooting
Said "why you always running in place?
Even the man in the moon disappeared
Somewhere in the stratosphere"

Tell my mother,
Tell my father
I've done the best I can
To make them realize
This is my life
I hope they understand
I'm not angry, I'm just saying...
Sometimes goodbye 
Is a second chance

Here's my chance
This is my chance

Tell my mother,
Tell my father
I've done the best I can
To make them realize
This is my life
I hope they understand
I'm not angry, I'm just saying...
Sometimes goodbye 
Is a second chance

Sometimes goodbye 
Is a second chance [x2]
