I'm sitting Half naked My heart racing My soul long dead And I'm tracing The lineage But I can't tell Where it started Here we stand the dislocated Flung so far from what we'd dream Hammered down then resurrected We bear the scars of what we've been Now the time of new beginning Though the past will never end But you will never catch me thinking It can never be the same. Conviction Undaunted Direction Beneath the iron sky And I've waited Now I'm shameless It's our warning And my calling Through these nigths me own reflection Chose to turn it's back on me Will you accept my reparation For the cost of what we've been I can't stop the wheels in motion I can't heal a broken heart But I can bridge with my devotion All the time we've spent apart. We won't find out What we suffered all alone With every light out Still I never gave up hope I see a chance now That I never thought I'd know We can try now. I was a young man I was a coward I was a blind man I was addicted Here are the roses
