Revitalize

The lights go up, and my heart races
There on the stage of life I stand
Alone but for the band all around
I hold my horn like a jewel in my hand

The count-off starts; I take my place
Blasting the notes out like a gun
Lazers flash all around the stage
Now I remember why this is so fun

My blood is pumping inside my veins
Adrenaline surges, the band plays on
I move to the front and play that chart
The beat I hear and lean upon

The shout chourus blares, my lips are burning
I play the upper part and take it up
The crowd is screaming, and so am I
I hold the last note and never give up

The song is over, but I am not done
I will forever go on and live my life
The music will power me and drive me on
It will be there through all of my strife

That night, my soul returns
My life has begun and all is well
The music continues its soothing refrain
And though I had fallen, who can tell?
