Lyrics

In this faltering nation the future belongs to the children in school There´s something wrong Sixth grader on crack Handgun overflowing in his hands Now he is just further demand We search for the source and still that child is left watching Inhumanity, bloodshed as the tele-violence feeds his head [Chorus] Only if he knew the consequence of greed A contious state of mind T.V. is not reality Never a victim the role model said Bang bang, the bad guy is dead Always a rockstar on eMpty T.V. The lesson complete Now the child has needs Of competition they bleed Oh beautiful for bills of green Nevermind spacious skies overhead Bleed the earth and butter your bread [Repeat Chorus] Chils turns on T.V. What does he see? Nature of man, dishonesty That child grows old Story be told as he sits behind bars and his soul grows cold

Realizing it´s too late Destiny turns to fate Realizing it´s to late now [Repeat] Now you say it´s over and the monkey´s off your back All it took was valium and a couple of six packs So once again you´ve lied and your story remains the same Beacuse misery loves companty and you´re the one to blame It´s Your life and it´s always the same It´s your life and it´s always the same to me

I can´t recall the hurting words that I once said So long ago, still indignation clouds your head And it´s enough to know the pain of losing friends You perpetuate certain sensless hate and I can picture you today as you say "I used to know that guy" And as you speak they watch your face split in two And when you see me It´s always, hey Joe, how is it goin' bro? where have you been man? We used to be such good friends Two-faced, you don´t care You know what you can do with it I can´t pretend and there you go again You ought to bury the hatchet and leave behind all of the lies and your disguise You know that I just want to bury the hatchet How much more will you permit? Think about it you´ll admit you and I have got to bury the hatchet Am I really all that bad? Sometimes I second guess Often times I wonder why my head is such a mess But put yourself in my shoes and picture if you can All these insecuriries create that bitter sad man you see hurting Not me I forgive, I forget I won´t say the things I´ll regret Not this time I will stop, but just between you and me it´s a loss I can´t recall the hurting words that I once said So long ago, still indignation clouds your head 'Cause it´s enough to know the pain of losing friends Fingers point at you Isn´t that what a child would do? And as you speak they´d watch your face split in two And when you see me It´s always, hey Joe, how is it goin' bro? where have you been man? We used to be such good friends Two faced, you don´t care You know what you can do with it Hypocrite Don´t give me that shit

Angry youth MR. Elite Your older now Inside your head lives an old scene MR. Punk Sad and hating everyone Your excuse is old The way you felt has left you hating yourself Cause everyone is so confused You never worked for a cent Self-destructive you pay your debt Cause you miss another time when all your friends were divine Now all of them have gone or changed Do you still live in angry days? But when you´ve lost someone you love When your mask is taken off Does life cut you down to size? Does it open up your eyes? Beacuse they all have found their way as you struggle through your maze You built those walls of hate Don´t tell me it´s too late

He grew up with nothing He lived and died poor a father of four He left his family temporarily for a future based on words of chicanery They said join the Army Join the Navy He joined the Marines and his children were proud but exhaltation was exhausted and patronage died when this expendable number left his family of five Imposture and all that man wanted was to provide a better existence for his kids and wife An investment that cost him his life A family of ethics has... A fatality of war can't be noble enough to justify the loss of life so young Continental security Atonement, there's no such thing There was no hero in the end Only letters of resent, remorse, regret Bitter resent Imposture and all those boys wanted was to be alive, a return of existence yet so many died and those who returned were alone with nothing awaiting at home Again the headlines read "A Noble Soldier Finds A Noble Ending" They are the ones who can be done without Expendable numbers forgotten no doubt A family of ethics has died

Too many hangars in the closet A clutter of confusion Too little rectitude to hold a moral absolute Too much distinction to relate to them Irresolutions we contemplate with no end In this world of give and take And what we refer to as maturity from emotional need to technology has you, a cultured seed of your society, lacking ability to feel clemency I'm surprized we still bleed into the abyss of despair that's hiding the child Compassion you would not dare admit to have experienced Do you regret looking back? A penitent confessing his sins The child inside of me recalls a time of purity, an outlook of release You remember Confident that you were able A future laid out on your table Running through memories a child is free The world restored you see I see The child inside of me

One summer morning He left us ashamed In some small town of small ways The one they feared They might turn to stone They feared to hold his hand And he died alone Don't leave them on - an island of shame Your solution You - homophobic You - coward You send them away to an island of misery You're not immune to any disease I can not argue when the truth is plain to see In your beliefs, your fear of death I see reflections of society We'll take our last breath - alone Adding insult to injuries - He was alone

I just lost my job, I just lost my girl, things are getting way out of con(trol) but my living proff is writing me. Thrust me down, I'll never leave, over head and guilt tv, Im burn't out and lazy. looking, dwealing, fuck me. Look at my cat, why can't I live like that, all of the animals except a few, do nothing else but eat and shit, yesterday was not the time, in my belt , in my mind, Im lazy.Fuck you.

Look at the world in disbelief You used to follow - now you lead College has enlightened you And you are proud to be different And like different bands - different types You ain't nobody's fool It's like certain bands remind you of someone you hated 'Cause they didn't wear the right clothing And there's only one true fashion Alot of the bands on the college charts are great bands until they get signed. Then you hate them It's such bullshit - you used to love them you hypocrite I remember you and I listening to bands that we liked Only the songs mattered to you But now you're a D.J. and preaching that hype "Corporate Rock Sucks" "You know, college radio enlightens you" It's supposed to serve as a means to expose new bands without prejudice, but it makes no sense Safe harbor for the underground 'Til the alternative becomes the popular sound The bands are good 'til they make enough cash to eat food and get a pad Then they're sold out and their music is cliché Because talent's exclusive to bands without pay Know it all - Did you really listen to that song? Could you ever write what you call wrong?

Friday night's the perfect night to mow some neighbor's lawn, And Dave is drunk and at the helm before too long. And Chris will gladly ride shotgun, 'cause navigating seems like fun, Drunk and out of gas, they drive around and crash. They're driving through your yard, there's nothing you can do, Dave's behind the wheel, and he's had more than just a few. Suburban families slumber in civility, Awakened to the sights and sounds of the yard they're blowing down in their death machine. Drive, drive, drive, drive, drive, drive... Dave's a midnight landscaper, and he's working overtime, And he is full throttle--full throttle tonight. (Alright!) He was almost home, just one more block, he had to hit that last mailbox, Dumped it in a ditch, ain't that a bitch? (Stoking the neighbors!) Came time to run, came time to bail, He was having too much fun to spend the night in jail. He had no "Triple A" for a tow truck, Called them anyway: Goleta, hear them say, "Hey pal, you're fucked!" Dave's a decent guy, like most of us, until he drinks, And then his liquid mind takes over how he thinks. And then all that matters is having fun, pulling off the next beer run, On one too many nights, the party's over. He's driving through your yard, there's nothing you can do, Dave's behind the wheel, and he's had more than one or two. Suburban families slumber in civility, Awakened to the aftermath: the neighbors have been stoked...

Try to ignore him Try to have self-control When that tounge slips just once its in his eyes Silence by energy push me down And it likes to come again Here to make you listen to them Treated to many times The eye for eye has left us blind This creature of demise, repaid all the time You hate them, you hate yourself Take it out on someone else I feel a change within myself, I used to be out of control I always knew in hurricane(?), that inspiration was a game And now it seems as grow old, as I mature I'm lesser bold I can't believe how cruel and cold some people act, I give it back Cause I don't want it, and I don't need itso I give it back Don't want to understand the child abuse, the past gone violent don't justify his violent nature Sooner or later I hope he meets his maker once again and like his father before him he kills himself Cause I don't want it and I don't need itso I give it back You hate them, you hate yourself take it out on someone else

They make your bed, don't they Long ago they fought and died for faith - what's changed ? It's said that we've acquired tolerance to build more bridges Cross those rivers, yet modern man enslaves his conscious and the undertow of blame still flows between Give it birth to the machine - hostilities of ancestry Slow to understand the variance - quick to judge on one aspect - rust We call them fools today - they will call us fools in days to come - always In any age it's ignorance He that he's not with me is against me The river of pride swells to high, washing those bridges out to sea Give it birth to the machine Too proud to love - Too proud Soaking in your fears - rusting away Never comprehending - always condescending Slow to understand the variance - quick to judge - quick to condem Carried them for years - stones that they once cast Place the blame on them as if it were their past Yesterdays distrust Resent, Regret, disgust Still we pay for their living - pay for their mistakes Who will cast the latest stones of hate Pay for their misgivings - pay for their living - still we find that on the surface there is rust

Gotta drive all night if not a go Got to designate a driver before the show It's your turn now at the wheel There's nothing like a guard rail to wake you up in the middle of the night And we are drivin' north, goin' south It looks like we'll sleep here, we're out of beer We're headed south on the north bound Our wheels might as well be square cause we're not really getting anywhere Tire tracks throughout, felt the brakin', I don't think we're gonna make it Drivin' around, goin' downIt looks like we'll sleep here, I need a beer South, goin' south, check us out we're goin' south South, headed south, check it out, we're goin' downSouth, goin' south

Silent again - when spoken their is friction and conflict why do we rub each other wrong maybe we've known each other too well for too long you and i have heard each other speech before are these words that i said - the same words that you heard we can only agree to disagree in disharmony is it too much likeness or indifference well the answers in the question isn't it the deepest cut of all comes from a trusted friend but i'm sick of it all i can't listen i wish that all of it would end you cut me off - i cut you down jerrated words let's stop repeating the lesson. We've been through thick n' thin i consider you a friend though it's hard for me show everytime you hear this song you'll know it's not just the business we know much more exist let's end the bad notes and the dis'chords we'll tune our attitude and realize a personal reward

I'm getting used to getting old but where's my ambition - Days of omission I feel broken down inside because my words seem to be trite adding to the overwhelming Always a question of truth your truths question my efficiency Shocking - The words you can't hear Impact - The words I can't write Recycled words don't justify... none of these words suffice searching for the sharp words to drive the message in I put the last words down then I begin to question the truth Your truths question my efficiency Impact the words you can´t hear Shocking the words I can´t write

now it's simple to me Sometimes you have to let go when there's Next to nothing You say everytime she says no There's more pain then love It comes o shove almost Everytime you speak Somehow you fight Something's just crazy Somehow it's taking all the life left in you You'er losing ground Carrying that torch Your not asking for much As she has... Had time to heal And she doesn't need you any longer an you... Had time to drink and you call her to tell her you've gotten much stronger At three in the morning she says stop calling cause... Everyone's asleep Some of us work You're driving me crazy When will you get on with my life Now every nights friday night Picking fights with your friends Somehow trying to make amends So you seach for comfort in a friend It's not the same she won't understand You both learned to think alike So what was so wrong Where's she tonight out there drinking while you're left in thinking It's taken all the life left in... You You're losing ground Carrying that torch You're not asking for much Still somehow You'll wait for her You say she'll return But you still carry that torch That girl WHIPPING BOY!!!

Labors of commitment Blood of his arms A growing sense of duty But in his song he's screaming out Insuficient - he just falls further behind Principles, purpose, tradition, time Weigh heavy on this guilty mind Wits astray Blind in rage, awar he'll wage on grieving Another no one hanging from the ceiling Because only the extreme makes an impression When drowning in the mainstream One at the mercy of another's faith finally answers to no one in his fall from grace They say they love him but how could they ever Miles above him they ask for repent It doesn't matter what you want from me Don't think there's worth in my apology Because people never really change You and I will always be the same and it's a problem that we can't mend because it happened once it will happen again Because they plant their seeds of condition until we have no choice, we lose conviction wits astray Blind in rage a war he'll wage on grieving Another no one blows his head off Because only the extreme makes an impression when drowning in the mainstream no one

Here comes the day I see my friends far away, When I grow up inside what will happen to me? The city sights the business types, I can see but where are you? Bye for now. Didn't mean to let you down, Didn't mean to drive you away. Bye for now! Now that your not around, So many things I'd like to say! See here I think I've found the missing link, The piece that holds us together. If I had my way I'd here you say that it's OK, Friendship should last for ever. Bye for now. Didn't mean to let you down, Didn't mean to drive you away. Bye for now! Now that you're not around, So many things I'd like to say! Didn't mean to let you down. Didn't mean to let you down. Didn't mean to let you down. Didn't mean to let you down. Didn't mean to let you down. Never meant to let you down. Didn't mean to let you down.

Would it make you feel much better If it was you against the world If you were an alien If it were conspiracy and would it hurt to live in comfort If you found someone to trust If you knew that you were with us If we shared a common goal But you will isolate, alienate No one can appreciate the poor miss understood Can you see that I don’t care anymore Do you ever stop to listen Are you a martyr for your pride Does it makes you fell much better When you are an alien?

As you in this search for something to hate I can feel you rally around someone with your peers but can you stand alone Can you take the long way home Cause I stood in the circle a hundred times before and I feel safer in the eye of a storm You can throw your stones I’ll only bleed for you one day They all answer to the hearsay but they will only care for one day It’s so small and I would love to show you all I can see you in the middle of a doubt You told them we had a falling out Sick your dogs on me as you take the easy way out So I will be a freak show when the circus comes to town and I will rain on your parade without a sound Then we will draw a crowd that’s only breaking down for one day I graduate this calss with honors I will never fail drama Making Friends Will you still hate me tomorrow?

The TV’s broke Her cheeks are soaked The drink is empty And now he is everything she hates Her lowest day It’s all the same It’s all the same This house is drowning in inevitable silence And it’s always been on In another born sick love Never made her question right or wrong In a see of failure he’s numb Upstairs disgust Small words cut through what once was their trust And then he gots everything he wants Silent treatement She’s out of breath There’s no one left around He will have regret when there is nothing left to say And it’s alway been on In another born sick love Never made him question right or wrong In a see of failure he’s numb It’s already killed me That’s aleready killed me It’s already been there That’s nothing new I overdosed I dug an hole I buried them and died with you In a sea of failure and I am numb

A look in your eyes what can I say You left us here and it’s a shame I would like to have helped To begin again you decided you fate One thing to live A look at you now what’s in a name You left them there It was a shame They would like to have helped Again to begin but potential was yours never ours before you chose your fate before you asked them all to wait Left standing there to watch you play with your matches One god burn deserves another two but one thing to live is one thing to live Selfish fool nobody loves you Self resent how can they trust you Walk around with a butt tattoo It will never do Why should you die with dignity You lived in a shame as you ask them all to wait Left standing here to watch you lying in your ashes One good burn deserves another two One thing to live is one thing to live

As you expect here as the keys So come and go as you please Wath’s mine seems to be yours Welcome to my drawers Today I heard them say a funny thing They were happy you were clean You were headed for success in the mountains of excess Today you fail them Tomorrow more Maybe I’ll lend you some more cash Don’t have to play it back I can depend on you Dependent on everyone Why am I guilty of my bending back Over to breaking The object of some desire Too late Too late Today I’m saving you I must have finished my last care with that beer With some ideal I might win while losing That’s some mentality I have to finish talking I’m finished talking Today I heard a funny thing Tey were happy you were clean And you won’t be looking back to the one that helped you pack

By now you should find your mouth By now you should call me We can work it out I fallow it until the end of concession "A falling out" I heard from them there’s no discretion I’m burning out on this By now you should be in a better place and thinking for your self It’s not your axe to grind and this is my latest confession I hope you hear about it Victims I know the saints come to call and bring you obsession to save you from your fall Victim I know it wont be long ‘till one worth possessing is one you’ll never reach Swallow it until the end of our concession I’m sure I’ll hear from you through them There’s no discretion I’m burning out on this and this is my latest confession I doubt you’ll hear about it It’s only indecision this is your latest condition I hope you hear about it soon

Cause I’m a bad scene and here’s everyone to blame but me Everyone points We all have all our selfish points A broken machine Used to puke up something good when we fed it and I’m sure I’ll miss it Not so sure I’ll ever see you Five years desensitized You’re my inspiration Ten thousand silent miles to hell Four well drinks, I am well Six months in hiatus A lifetime too short to save us Never wanted to be famous A good day to die off shameless So fuck longevity when there is no use in searching for a noose Hanging on to abuse sick of hanging around and waiting Cause it’s bad scene and there’s everyone to blame but me Everyone points We all have our selfish points A broken machine Used to puke up someting good when we fed it I’m against it Bad scene

I hate my friends I hate my friends I hate my... Two in the morning here I am turning blue I’m drinking up for an old friend Bourbon can’t clean my mind of this voice in my head "I hate my friends" Cause they make me think about the smile that I’m faking I hate my Yeah, that’s the scene that I am in Lying At odds with every bland image How many excuses can this fool listen to You never cared There was no us only misery and distrust I hate my...

I hope you didn’t mind when I saw you turn into nothing less than nothing new Before you wait to sleep it off... How little is enough? What can you do? before you decide to make the last mistake With draw away from us and say good-bye to all but one that takes you ond puts you to rest On twenty-seven street nothing will keep you warm Everything bring you harm Everything here fails you Now lying at your feet Everyone nails you Everyone worships you Everyone here fails you I can figure it out and it’s all about to... turn into lack of wit on sinking ships I might have jumped but you jumped first Abandon ties that bind There’s no salvation here I’d surely miss the times when we were so depressed No I miss you I Know I miss you and you are missing something You take a rip and then you find sedation Some salvation A masochistic only point of view Nothing is left to you Everyond speaks the truths Everyone here fails me Hope you didn’t mind when I saw you

Choke choke pride Still I could only wait for you to decide Tear it all apart You break my heart Why don’t you follow through Follow through And the day ends A so called friend A drunken bed How could you with... Why would you... All of them No one owns you Just keep me hanging here Tell me you need me dear Tell me you’re sure I souldn't fear Lies Lies Lies Choke Choke Please Have another drink on me My love humiliation I gave you every chance to leave and you stayed just long enough to bury me As I understand wath no one can see I stop And all these words seem selfish and anger you And none of it is true But all of them confess until I choke... I tough I knew a true love I used to think you really cared I used to think I knew True Innocence I though that you were that I know you to well when you lie I hope you choke on them and see for me For me And all these words seem selfish and anger you And you were always true Am I the only want that hears you lie?

Pick up please The boys give you validity They give you what you want They can never give enough Only charity until you're sorry Victimized, one thing I can’t criticize Given you struggle Could you ever be alone? Seems impossible and still I’m sorry Saint Freedom, it’s so easy when you give up No matter what I’ve done I could never be the one It’s never effortless to fail I can rely on this Could you ever rely on me Jealousy The boys give you validity No matter what you’ve done I could never be the one Just a shareholder of lies I put you to bed They will always leave independent of you You could never deny I always knew how to fail you I always knew you

Here’s a song to all my friends I know they’d like I remember every drunken night at the old dive Driving the ol’wreck Trying to make it home somehow One more pit stop at our favorite watering hole The ghost of Christmas past swallowed all our pride We’d open up our story books and water down the eyes our demons raised their glasses singing "I propose a toast to my friends" Who’s buying the next round Cup half empty Cup half full Perspectives and beers They weren’t failure Just the regulars of my favorite year They come and go paying their toll From mobiles homes Decaying old unsound minds The ghost of Cristmas failure dancing to the click of time The beating of defeat Shaking in his hands a lifetime of retreat And his regrets were ours A time to say good-bye I’ve been waiting so long for you to call my old friend To all my friends...

Here he is. He saves a girl He wants to be the one who doesn't have to sink a level indiscrete in his retreat All he needs is just a taste of the bitter pride he held in her name Embrace the solitude in ordinary fucked up state of grace Faraway from the days he bared the cross she used to wear In some resolve well aware a little pitiful, a pin up boy they dress in grieving wear well at ease in consent in the drift of undertow He won't justify the pify from them when he knows... fools in love are arrogant Their sermonds cloud his breathing air He's in love with an isolation from emotion Here he is awaiting sentence a fool to think that anyone can escape guilt and angylish a subtlety that can't be learned a subtlety that can't be taught he is caught in the lyre of second thoughts he might still care As he settles down well aware bound in secrecy. His voice will only dignify their fears but sorrow is signified He's well aware of his pride

You jump in front of the bullet The family put you to it You might survie the first thousand shots back to the end of the line You hold the will to survie them Answer to those you have failed Time to clean your room and show you are able to stop beating yourself down You've arrived A wealth of respect, a world of a regard You've always belonged You have to go on I just want to feel the gun in your hand You used to hold aspiration You couldn't see the limitations Even in your youth you were unsurpassed but driven by grief and it couldn't last Sometimes promise, sometimes goodbye Confessed to all through bloodshot eyes I just want you to feel the gun in your hand It only breaks you until you get off I'm not gonna watch you kill yourself to live It's all so average until you get off I'm not gonna wait here until the body's cold I just want to feel the gun in your hand

So please leave the ligth on after you've gone Leave the pictures in their aging frames up where they belong Leave the bed sheets unclean and they will reek of you still Cover me in resolve So please leave the imagery I can twist it Dissociation and obsession Superstition and pain I can carry them on too and bury you once again If I could bring this memory to life I'd apologize I live to hear you say what they can't I would make amends They'd all love to have you back but... I'd give anything to birng you back to say goodbye

Everything that I've done here into one in keeping with... some earned conviction, some stagnation, some change despair Done, I know this is wrong Safe in that stance but incomplete Leave it behind. I know that this time I get in for free Our latest rendition lame Reincarnate, return the same Still the best times are here now. Now that I'm bored, Now that I'm numb Disappointment odds in a costume you can't take off I leave it behind. I know that this time I get out for free Some of it's habitual sometimes the change is not enough and in the lost empathy memories of better days

My inspiration note the sympathy They've taken everything you own and they left you there alone My setting sun, self appionted, I am a fraud You are the martyr It's decided and I owe you severals worlds I can tell you... Rat in the server, scraps they left behind Once their visionary, and they all have robbed you blind Your broken records playing for None fabricate song Amputated creative tongue You sing on and on I can tell you why I'm bringing you down, calling you out, taking your shield It's easier now Years have been kind Distance between has giving hind sigth I jumped a train Your tragedy so easy to read, is bitter envy They're reaping all the lowly benefits You missed the train they stole and you never... I'm burning you down, calling you out, taking your shield It's easier now Years have been kind Distance between Given hind site I'm on a train

It's.......time to get up and stress out We're driving to another town We're never gonna make sound check so i can't even take a shit No showers, shaving or coffee I can't fuckin' brush my theeth "C'mon we're already late man, let's go" Hurry up and wait Wait Hurry up and wait

Things don't seem to be as easy as they used to be It's getting harder every day to think of better things to say about what's going on around you and what's happening inside you When it's time to change you won't know how It won't matter years from Now No matter what you think or do or say everything turns grey This is it, the darkest hour Isn't it depressing how our minds create an atmosphere That won't happen here unless we make some new demands to grasp the future in our hands You know I I could but it's to late for senseless minds that love to hate No matter what they think or do or say everything turns grey

Maybe it's not funny but it's true No one here's suprised but you Embellish it, the truth is you're a slave addicted to it's ascalating and your love story's bad Drama makes you livid and the Nervous always laugh I'm fresh out of advice and sick of standing in this harms way Interstate, in debate, an impasse Driving out the hope and gas Arriving at the same mute conclusion This destination failure This is going, going Nowhere slow Drama is exhausting and I'd rather be alone I want better friends I'm sick of giving in to harms way and so are they Sick of being around some- thing that's destined to fail and the sum of it's parts can not see they make me hate life, hate friends, hate being there I know that it's not funny but it's true No one gives a shit but you Maybe I'll jsut swallow all these thoughts Maybe someday you'll stop

Late, I can stay up late In and out of bed Cleaning up the mess Trying to be honest 'cause I know i am on it In this, the last time I speak of it the loyalties that have been broken Mine isn't dead One thing is true Nothing is scared when everyone's talking and nobody's listening When we confide in all those friends they're just messengers One thing is true You throw the matters into blue skies turning grey, falling out every day One thing that's free I confide in you with the truth Late,I can stay up late In and out of bed Cleaning up the mess inside my head

Def, watching cars and focus on one 'till it's gone Heroes die off every day Like fathers who would Never stay The kids are all wrong (repeat) They're full of their hopeless opinion The kids are all wrong The kids are all wrong That's all ever really learned

No more waiting on them as you rise inside new rooms It's official you've gone you can live for no one else Man the guilt must be huge As there's no gain in failure you succeed at being mine Yeah, old friends, see you there I will be proud from afar I can paint a picture in a moment of memories and there aren't many left I am extradited uninvited It's just another Saturday Take a step to freedom You and her loathing this cruel world Take a breath of shelter and exhale trust and allegiance Liberate yourself from hell It's just another Saturday

Uncertainty A foundation built on nothing I could see secure in your immaculate perception the last resort I thought I'd ever exercise Now, all that I have to stand on Grieving from a different point of view I learn it's meaning from you in life and death and continue ...but faith is just a silent tribute Mine is just despercate act Give him back I owe him Throw me a line, I'll suspend my disbelief and concede following your lead Faithfully Led into this concession with hope and doubt A seemingly futile gesture My faith is just a silent tribute This is just a desperate act Holding on It's just this desperation that takes me home
