Former days now gone, lament As you face these years of torment Asked to demonstrate how you repent While expectant eyes await intent on discontent They turned their backs (They turned their backs) Then took your voice, dark horse If you can make it through this If you can make it out alive Then will you tell your story? Of how you were Taken from nothing Shown the world is far from merciful Inhumane, but there is time to live again To live again Weighed down but now no longer falling A heavy scarlet letter transformed into your calling Your mentor was misery, dark horse New power, destiny, dark horse All the strength from the weight you carry, dark horse Taken from nothing Shown the world is far from merciful Inhumane, but there is time to live again There is time to live again These vast plains we're in the middle of have an end This damning desert was built with finite grains of sand Rejected by the establishment And given this unexpected gift Your mind immortal, though your body in hell But they won't be able, to keep you here If you can make it through this If you can make it out Taken from nothing Shown the world is far from merciful Inhumane, but there is time Taken from nothing Shown the world is far from merciful Inhumane, but there is time to live again Live again To live again Your mentor was misery, dark horse All the strength from the weight you carry, dark horse
