       1. Have you ever loved           someone you knew nothing of
       2. Have you ever tried         to speak the truth instead of lie
       3. Now I see the ones who've lost too much, they swear they're done

          Have you ever loved               someone just because
          Have you ever tried        to stand your ground instead of hide
