If I breath in deep, will the smoke in my lungs find it's way up, out like a loaded gun My tongue is a bullet, do my words just shoot to kill? Will I be better for it? If I drink my fill, will the knot in my gut loosen a drop of warmth in this empty cup My heart is a shelter, made of rock but the roof still leaks. Will I be better for it? Step left to right down the marching line, oh Cause your knee deep now in the rue of the fight, oh Don't turn your back for a second, oh temptress she will bite, oh Just keep your eyes to front, follow my guiding light, oh If I think to much, will the blood in my veins keep my mind afloat on uneven waves My thoughts are rudder, pure but tempted by an open sea. Will I be better for it? Step left to right down the marching line, oh Cause your knee deep now in the rue of the fight, oh Don't turn your back for a second, oh temptress she will bite, Just keep your eyes to front, follow my guiding light Run my son , come, I am here (meet me here) Run my love, come, let go of your fears You will be better for it

I have come to find in time, That I feel as if I've gone and died, my life straight to hell But when the worldly morning haze, fell off my hazel eyes did gaze across, the echoing numb Of staggering souls and crooked faces, that steal to cheat and kill to love, hoping to find a peace of mind, by whatever means Plunder, Beg and Curse, can't seem to find our worth, inside Fallen from our faith, cant' seem to find our way, past the lions Den as thick as thieves, lay a kiss upon your cheek, disguised Run, mocker run, the back bird has come, for your eyes Oh my God, What's become of us? Blinded we see what's only in front, our backs exposed to what we've left undone, forgotten in a rush To pillage on our plundering, what lust can tell us must be our own, after all what's yours is mine But I can't believe we where meant for nothing, no I won't believe you meant nothing when you breathed life, it meant everything Plunder, Beg and Curse, can't seem to find our worth, inside Fallen from our faith, cant' seem to find our way, past the lions Den as thick as thieves, lay a kiss upon your cheek, disguised Run, mocker run, the back bird has come, for your eyes Oh my God, what's become of us? Plunder, Beg and Curse, can't seem to find our worth, inside Den as thick as thieves, lay a kiss upon your cheek, disguised Oh my God, what's become of us?

Work my fingers to the bone I can not do this on my own If this house is your home, can I find my own? If this is happening, who am I to take this on my Are you satisfied? I'm still hungry, I'm still waiting to hear With hands in full stride, my feet tongue tied Can my body rest before I go? Breaking backs on uphill battles, Can not seem to bear this load Fighting an uneven grade, can i find my own? If this is happening, who am I to take this on my Are you satisfied? I'm still hungry, I'm still waiting to hear With hands in full stride, my feet tongue tied Can my body rest before I go? So lets Slow down, there is hope in the waiting Slow down, now my body finds its rest before I go Work my fingers to the bone, I can't do this on my own
