. . .


I'll reach out my hand and you'll turn the other way.
I'm only trying to extend myself, to communicate.
I try and I try and I try, there's no response from you.
So now I refuse to waste my, waste my time, to waste my fucking time on you.

I refuse to let myself down by falsely putting judgement on you.
To make myself look higher, higher - only to be knocked down by the truth.
I will never choose a different path; I will never turn away from you.
Your attitude is an example of this, which has become for me a burning fight.
Not to change your opinion of me; but to try to help you see what's right.

And I will never choose a different path; ya I will never turn away from you.
I will never choose a different path; and I will never fucking be like you!
Yeah, it's my burning fight, my burning fight.
This is my burning fight, my burning fight.

. . .


We can't separate. We cannot cut the cord.
We can't deny to relate. More ignorance we can't afford.
We cannot quiet the truth. We can't quiet the undertone.

So eager to claim we could never be the same - can't quiet the undertone.
A stale superstition puts compassion in remission - can't quiet the undertone.

. . .


Holding on, for my life.
Hanging on, by a thread.

Cause I if I don't try, I'm gonna fall into the hatred of this world.
And if I don't try I'm gonna fall, I'm gonna fall...

My hands are bleeding, this thread cuts through my veins;
But it's all I've got to hold.
I hang and pray and struggle everyday,
To keep this spark of reality from growing cold.

And If I don't try I'm gonna fall, I'm gonna fall...

A tightrope balance; my very life,
hangs by a thread above the abyss of my despair.
If I lose my grip again, oh if I snap.
I will be lost again - a dark relapse.

. . .


Try to make me bow down to you.
Try to take my identity.
Try to make me just another pebble on the beach.
A green mind twists the plan.
A cold hand trying to silence me.
You reach out to grasp me, but I'm out of reach.

No Spiritual Surrender
No Spiritual Surrender

Try to make me bow down to you.
Try to take my identity.
Try to make me just another pebble on the beach.
A green mind twists the plan.
A cold hand trying to silence me.
Trying to grasp me, but I'm out of reach.

I gave, I gave, you indulged yourself and robbed from my good will.
If not you who can I trust? Who can I trust to be fulfilled?
Sacrifice.
I've done more than my share.
I kept you from drowning when I couldn't swim.
Now I'm sinking and you're not there.

You're not there.
You're not there.
You're not there.

So now I choke on every word that I said to your pretty face.
Like when I said that no one better, no one better could take your place.
Betrayal - lies: Lies thick in the air.
And should the bottom fall out on your life you'll turn around and I'm not there.

I'm not there.
I'm not there.
I'm not there.

Don't waste your time insulting me, I'd do anything.
You take and you take then you just give it away.
So how can I give any more?
There will be no more - there will be no more sacrifice.

. . .


Lost at a game, so easy to play.
I lost my faith, I lost my stride.
How can this be, I fought so desperately.
Was too afraid to show what I had inside.

But I believe in redemption.
And I believe in redemption.
And I believe in redemption.

Children of the street wander so helplessly.
Who will pay for their suffering?
We've got the power to set them free,
Yet still, we do nothing, nothing.

But I believe in redemption.
And I believe in redemption.
And I believe in redemption.
I believe!

Sometimes I just don't know, I guess we lost our way to go.
Sometimes I just don't know, I guess we lost our way to go.
Sometimes I just don't know, I guess we lost our way to go.
Sometimes I just don't know, I guess we lost our way to go. (x2)

Redemption!
