[00:17.26]
[01:07.20]to rise, to fall.
[01:12.45]to hurt, to hate.
[01:17.61]to want, to wait.
[01:22.75]to heal, to save.
[01:26.70]
[01:29.28]can't hear it
[01:31.56]we fear it
[01:34.12]awareness won't come near it
[01:38.58]
[01:39.29]distractive
[01:41.91]reactive
[01:44.56]disguised in spite of time
[01:49.18]
[02:37.12]i never bared my emotion
[02:39.49]my passion always strong
[02:44.93]i never lost my devotion
[02:47.06]but somewhere fate went wrong
[02:51.67]
[03:01.91]can't let them rape me again
[03:05.30]your venom's not family here
[03:09.20]won't let them fill me with
[03:11.71]fatalistic remedies
[03:15.38]
[03:17.58]what if the rest of the world
[03:20.61]was hopelessly blinded by fear?
[03:26.35]where would my sanctity live?
[03:29.56]suddenly nobody cares.
[03:34.44]
[03:43.79]it's never enough
[03:45.13]you're wasting your time
[03:46.82]isn't there something i could say?
[03:49.83]you don't understand
[03:51.19]you're closing me out
[03:52.82]how can we live our lives this way?
[03:55.60]
[04:05.41]you tell me i'm wrong
[04:06.90]i'm risking my life
[04:08.47]still, i have nothing in return
[04:11.47]i show you my hands
[04:13.03]you don't see the scars
[04:14.70]maybe you'll leave me here to burn.
[04:17.63]
[04:18.45]what if the rest of the world
[04:21.40]was hopelessly drowning in vain?
[04:27.04]where would our self pity run?
[04:30.45]suddenly everyone cares.
[04:35.05]
[04:35.60]blood...heal me
[04:37.96]fear...change me
[04:40.20]belief will always save me
[04:44.68]blood...swearing
[04:47.02]fear...staring
[04:49.30]conviction made aware
[04:53.58]
[04:54.35]give up on misery
[04:59.54]turn your back on dissent
[05:03.92]leave their distrust behind
[05:09.12]wash your hands of regret
[05:12.17]
[05:13.92]do you feel you don't know me anymore?
[05:22.26]and do you feel i'm afraid of your love?
[05:31.61]and how come you don't want me asking?
[05:35.96]and how come my heart's not invited?
[05:40.71]you say you want everyone happy
[05:45.24]well, we're not laughing.
[05:48.66]
[05:49.86]and how come you don't understand me?
[05:54.50]and how come i don't understand you?
[05:59.16]thirty years say we're in this together
[06:03.81]so open your eyes.
[06:07.38]
[06:07.87]people in prayer for me
[06:09.71]everyone there for me
[06:12.02]sometimes i feel i should face this alone
[06:16.39]my soul exposed
[06:18.62]it calms me to know that i won't
[06:25.33]
[06:26.28]blood...heal me
[06:28.58]fear...change me
[06:30.90]belief will always save me
[06:35.47]blood...swearing
[06:37.75]fear...staring
[06:40.03]conviction made aware

[09:02.45]blood...swearing
[09:04.81]fear...staring
[09:07.16]conviction made aware
[09:11.22]
[09:12.39]learning from misery
[09:17.35]staring back at dissent
[09:21.78]leaving distrust behind
[09:26.94]i'm inspired and content
