Testi

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm not one to say
Where my feelings are going when they wither away
I pray to see another day
My heart's feeling like a needle lost in the hay
Restrained to meet again
Oh my friend, do you think that we ever will?
Well I know we are free
[Verse 2]
The games are played with your life on the line
Some lose, you win if you keep on trying
Oh I don't mind doing the time
I'm happier being alive
Now I know the means to my oppression
We're all lies
The only truth is your own most sacred lesson I'd ever learned
Well I know we are free
[Verse 3]
Yeah, yeah
Don't go
No, don't look back
Just realize
[Verse 4]
Well I've been robbed
I've been fooled
I intend not to fake my own rules
Dagger's edge
Cut the line
I been down that road
Too many times
[Verse 5]
What's to fear
Fear no more
Show my conscience what fear's for
Now I know
This is surreal
What's done is done so do as you will
[Verse 6]
Well I'm keeping alive
Well, go on
No, don't look back
Just realize
Where you've gone
Where are you going to?
No, life's not done with you
You've only just begun
To live your life
For you
