Damn the circumstances Life is hard enough Damn the bones that rattle Faith is good enough My heart is like a hand-me-down made soft by older brothers My body's like my father's house, the sin of genera~ons You shook the ground beneath my feet, my hopes

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you? Has someone taken your faith? Its real, the pain you feel You trust, you must Were you born to resist or be abused? I swear I'll never give in

The faith in me shall set me free, reflections Yes, I swear, if only you could understand Impossible to see the changes All they see is just the boy Behind these prison walls Doing my paces, doing my time I am spendin' my restless nights Visioning faces,

You left my heart as empty As a Monday morning church It used to be so full of faith and now it only hurts And I can hear the devil whisper "Things are only getting worse" You left your Bible on the dresser So I put it in the drawer 'Cause I can't seem

We will not die this way (this is absolution) Death claims us no more (no more) Do not grieve, end the suffering We will live, were eternal We will not die this way, in unification They cannot break these chains of faith Will take the stand among the
