(John Kay and Morgan Cavett)
|
Now when you're down and troubled
|
Like orphan in a storm
|
And you feel life's weight upon you
|
Your body's cold and worn
|
You know that there's no mercy
|
For a child without a home
|
For the streets they hold no comfort
|
For a nameless soul unknown
|
|
And your life it lies before you
|
Like a rainbow 'round the sun
|
And the promised they made to you
|
They always seem to get undone
|
|
You're fighting waves of vast indifference
|
On the high and raging sea
|
You are the captain of your destiny
|
Nobody else can find the way for you to see
|
|
When you can't see the way before you
|
For the darkness in your head
|
Remember only you can lead yourself to be misled
|
|
I'm standing by the wayside
|
With all my scars from time
|
Reading books of long gone heroes
|
Who died between the lines
|
I climb their walls of anger
|
They build with words of stone
|
Fighting on with tongue and dagger
|
'Til blood and truth are shown
|
