|
The distant sound of mercy
|
Ringing in my eyes
|
Far from the masses fades away
|
Closed my eyes and waited for the pain to pass
|
Recalled a little story
|
Heard today
|
Yeah, I'm feeling trapped
|
So locked away
|
Caught in a downward spiral
|
In, into the black
|
I wont be back Don't need to see your face
|
Don't need to hear a word you say
|
Don't need to know your name
|
Or why you're here
|
Shadows of the past
|
Appear in front of me
|
Into the masses disappear
|
The sound of silence
|
Ringing for a greater good
|
To this point I cant believe my ears
|
Yeah, coming unwrapped
|
Starting to fray
|
Walking the final mile
|
In, into the black
|
I wont be back
|
Choose to be here awhile
|
Then I saw your face
|
And I heard the words you said
|
Then I recalled your name
|
And why I'm here
|
When I looked into your eyes
|
Saw how much you cried
|
I had a revelation
|
The pain wouldn't last
|
The scars they would last
|
Into God's creation
|
Blessed secrets holding me
|
Then we all close our eyes
|
Lay down and sighed
|
Live young, Die Free
|
A distant chime of mercy
|
Ringing one last time
|
Into the masses turns to clay
|
Molded into what is now
|
The greater good
|
To close just a story..yesterday
|
Don't need to see your face
|
Don't need to hear a word you say
|
Don't need to know your name
|
Or why you're here
|
Then the child of a liar put his hands into the fire
|
Called it discontention
|
And a man with the word repeated what he heard
|
Lead to mass confusion
|
Blessed secrets agony
|
Then the child closed his eyes
|
Laid down and died
|
Live Young, Die Free
|
|
