we are strong
we are right
we won't be pushed aside
we'll go on
we will fight
we will not comprimise
we will never lose to you
we will never lose to you
we will never lose to you
we will never lose to you
Well our souls are all mistaken in the same misguided way
We all end up forsaken, we're just choosing our own way
The future now incinerates before our very eyes
And leaves us with emptiness of no more tries
Well our visions of glory have spiraled down the drain
The best of our intentions come crashing down in flames
The depths of our despair we are unable to contain
It's shallow living
The noose is falling
And all my friends are crawling
The noose is falling
And enemies are rising
A truth appalling
Our mak'r comes a calling
The noose is falling
And enemies are rising
Well the tracers from yesteryear are burning in the dust
Your bruises are reminders of naivete and trust
You're only feeling stronger cause your body's getting numb
Now I lay you down
Put the coins in your eyes
And blow the candles out
The noose is falling
And all my friends are crawling
The noose is falling
And enemies are rising
A truth appalling
Our mak'r comes a calling
The noose is falling
And enemies are rising
No more!
No more!
Nothing!
No more!
No more!
Ever!
No!
More!
(Hey) I’m driving down a dusty road
(Hey)I’ve got nowhere to go
(Hey) No place that I can call my own
On and on this road is burning
(Break away) I’m leaving all this crap behind
(Break away) The past is gone the future’s blind
(Break away) Don’t care how long it takes this time
On and on I’ll take the long way home
The long way home (Whoah!)
The long way home (Whoah!)
If it’s for me it’s on the way home
(Hey) Like fragments of a broken mind
(Hey) I splinter by my own design
(Hey) The search is not a waste of time
On and on this road keeps burning
(Break away) My hands are glued upon the wheel
(Break away) The road ahead is all I feel
(Break away) The only thing left that’s real
On and on I’ll take this long way home
The long way home (Whoah!)
The long way home (Whoah!)
I will go alone
I will go and find it on my own
What lays ahead you can not find for me
On and on I’ll take the long way home
The long way home (Whoah!)
The long way home (Whoah!)
If it’s for me it’s on the way home (Whoah!)
The long way home (Whoah!)
I’ll take the long way home (Whoah-Whoah-oh!)
I will go alone
I will go and find it on my own
The winds of fortune
Don't blow the same
She had to get out
And make a change
She had a kid now
But much too young
Their baby daddy's
Out having fun
He's sayin' 'Now I'm on a roll
With all the girls I know'
His baby mama
She aint so slow
He's sayin' 'Now I'm on a roll
With all the girls I know'
I know you wanna Hit That
I know you wanna Hit That, Hit That
All of the world is getting with i say
Consequences are a lot for me
That's the way
That's the way things go
What was a family
Is now a shell
We're raising kids now
Who raise themselves
Sex is a weapon
It's like a drug
It gets around until
That crowd will eat you up
She's sayin' 'Now I'm on a run
I'm chasing guys for fun'
My baby daddy
It aint his only one
She's sayin' 'Now I'm on a run
I'm chasing guys for fun'
I know you wanna Hit That
I know you wanna Hit That, Hit That
Hey everybody's getting with i say
Consequences are a right folly
That's the way
That's the way things go
Well then wise up
Broken up, really such a shame
But why not?
Take a chance, everything's a game
And it don't stop
Hooking up, nothing's gonna change
Well, the more he's tryin'
The more he's buyin'
He says 'Now I'm on a roll
With all the girls I know'
His baby mama
Don't need to know
He's sayin' 'Now I'm on a roll
With all the girls I know'
I know you wanna Hit That
I know you wanna Hit That, Hit That
All of the world is getting with i say
Consequences are a right folly
That's the way
That's the way things go
(I realise)
All I want
All I need
Always lies just out of reach
I've been coming up empty
(I realise)
I ran as fast as I can run
I pushed as hard as anyone
But still there's nothing for me
(And I want)
I've tried as hard as I can
(And I need)
I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall)
But I am running a race
Against myself
Against myself, yeah
(I realise)
Running out, struggle on
Am I sorrow as my song
My whole world is half parted
(I realise)
For my pain I have none
After all is said and done
Now I'm back where I started
(And I want)
I've gone as far as I can
(And I need)
I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall)
But I am running a race
Against myself
Against myself, yeah
(And I want)
I've tried as hard as I can
(And I need)
I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall)
But I am losing the race
Against myself
Against myself, yeah
Against myself
Deep inside your soul there's a hole you don't wanna see
Every single day what you say makes no sense to me
Even though I try I can't get my head around you
Somewhere in the night there's a light in front of me
Heaven up above with a shove, I beg it's me
Even though I try I fall in the river of you
You've managed to bring me down too
All you're faking (Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up)
Shows you're aching (Get Up, Get Up, Get Up)
Every single day what you say makes no sense to me
Lettin' you inside, isn't right, don't mess with me
I never really know what's really going on inside you
I can't get my head around you
All you're feeling (Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up)
Shows you're breathing (Get Up, Get Up, Get Up)
Deep inside your soul there's a hole you don't wanna see
Covering it up like a cut with the likes of me
You know I've really tried, I can't do anymore about you
The cut's getting deeper (Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh)
The hill's getting steeper (Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh)
I guess I'll never know what's really going on inside you
I can't get my head around you
I can't get my head around you
I can't get my head around you
I can't get my head around you
