Take that back *you don't know me*

by alive in death   Jan 31, 2006


I cant imagine my life in a different way.
i couldn't see myself happy for more then a day.
yeah, sure, i might be happy for a second or two,
but then it's back to worrying, like i always do.

you might say you know my life.
and how i lived.
you might say you know....
how much pain i killed.
you might say that everyones gone thru that.
but if you knew how warped i am,
you'd take everything you ever said back.

this is our life to live.
we've got so many mistakes to hide
so much guilt hidden.
so who is anyone to say....
that anyone else's life is right or wrong?
what i say,
how i feel,
what i know,
what is real,
what lifts me up,
what destroys my mind,
what takes me to a different plane,
what leaves me blind.
I'm so sick of bending backward,
for the world to see,
that I'm dead serious about who i am today.

so you may break me,
have your way with me.
but i know it comes back ten fold.
cause what you've already done,
you can not withdraw.
so stay to yourself unless you want to be there for me,
cause I'm dying as it is.
I'm to afraid to be,
someone who speaks up against the grain.
someone who speaks up against the hate.

you cant stand against something you've been through to,
we're all brothers and sisters in the light,
when we are one we bring the new.
a new life that leads with faith,
a new hope that feeds off the strength,
a strength that's in Christ.
this is the purest faith.
