No Easy Way Out by Robert Tepper.

We're not indestructible
Better

get that straight
I think it's unbelievable
How you give into the hands of fate

Some things are worth fighting for
Some feelings never die
I'm not askin' for another chance
I just wanna know why

There's no easy way out
There's no shortcut home

I don't want to pacify you
I don't want to drag you down
But I'm feelin' like a prisoner
Like a stranger in a no-name town

I see all the angry faces
Afraid that could be you and me
Talkin' about what might have been
I'm thinkin' about what I used to be

We can shed this skin
We can know how we feel inside
Instead of goin' down an endless road
Not knowin' if we're dead or alive

There's no easy way out
There's no shortcut home
