I feel defenseless as my whole body tenses discontent caused by pretenses fences put up around this endless emptiness and no I can't fight it Father, take this disease away from me I want to stand up strong, unwavering take me past the point of no return Light up my selfish pride and watch it burn (Chorus) Stakes are high and what we are is more than meets the eye not afraid to die we rebel against this evil in our defense our victory's clenched Lose my life to find you close my eyes to see I will stop at nothing You're my everything this wickedness has got me on its hit list but I resist I come against it with a closed fist swing and miss but they can't dodge my mad wit feel the pain as they get a glimpse of my tactics move on because the sunlight's almost gone they think they're creeping in at night but they're dead wrong we've got the truth clenched tight and were running on fast as we can in this life long marathon come on we're marching on.
