Walking, ducking through the shadows
Jumping, running through the night
Constant night, constant fright
You argue, but I know I'm right
This world, this feeling...
It's dark, unappealing
Crushed under the pressures of hate,
You decide your own fate.
And you must listen to the ones you degrate
I bring to you, a story of truth.
I put my words, my thoughts to use,
To explain how the world, has got us in a noose.
It's a nice day, sunny, warm.
But inside the people, feelings are deformed.
Eating them alive,
Eating their insides,
Hatred rips us apart,
We're happiness deprived.
I've found a light, I've found a way,
I've found what gets me through every day.
But not all people have a restraint to hold them back,
They lash out, they go mad,
Hatred kicks them off track.
Falling deeper into the abyss,
It's the happiness they miss.
They need someone. they need something,
They need a harness to keep them from jumping,
Reach out, give a hug.
Tell a joke, give some love.
With one bit of caring you can prevent all of the above.
Bring light to the darkness, smiles to the scowls.
No more eerie silences, you hear the hoot of the owls.
Don't be scared, there's nothing to worry about
You've got a plan? carry it out.
Stamp out the hatred, tear the sadness to pieces,
If they can't reach, see how far your arm reaches.
A martyr of hatred, a villian. will try to drag you down,
Find what he's concealing under his robes in which he teaches
He lives in hate, you long for love
So against his hawk, you use a dove.
Torn to pieces, ripped to shreds,
The hawk watched, as your dove bled.
You think there's no hope, you begin to choke.
You fall to the ground and you drown in the smoke.
Here comes the enemy in his leather cloak,
To tell you the truth... this world is a joke.
Taking no side, I survive the war.
Unlike you, I've got someone to adore.
So leave me be, I've been set free.
No more darkness for me,
I can finally see.
I sit and watch as you drown in your sorrow,
And I laugh it up as if there's no tommorrow
You tried to bring me down, you tried to break me,
But you lost, so for a coward, do not mistake me.
This world is no match for me and my love, I still live in darkness,
But I swim through the floods
I need no help, I need no more care,
This world is corrupted, it's falling apart.
It's hinges rusted, not too smart
So to put an end to this madness,
I fight my own sadness,
and live with compassion
for the rest who walk blind.
This powerful love is one of a kind.
An aid in the shadows against the one with no spine.
The deciever is persistent,
but wont catch me slippin' again.
I pray to The Lord Jesus to keep me from sin.
