Dazed and confused Black and blue he sits alone now Craving one more pill to numb his ache On the way to run from all the anger Choking on the tear gas
Gunfire tearing up the night This is not even his fight Is this the cost of stolen freedom? Is it worth the sacrifice? The legless corpses line in the street As children cry themselves to sleep One more night love's in the grave
Dysfunction Temptation To leave the violence behind The damage done has left a scar so deep
Keep the faith when darkness comes I give myself to make you still The nights will bleed The days will burn I'll stay till you return So keep the faith 'Cause it's meant for you
16, so sweet, when she gave herself the first time Promises of love turned out to be lies Thrown to the street The pregnant girl that no one stuck around for
Bring in a new life to exile Or cut the chord while there's still time Not even God will give the answers To abdomination's bride Dreams die under the knife of loss Feels like she's up there on the cross Is our nature such a sin?
Rejection Confusion She's gonna sleep and not wake up The damage done crushed her glass heart to pieces
Keep the faith when darkness comes I give myself to make you still The nights will bleed The days will burn I'll stay till you return So keep the faith Believe in this Just keep the faith 'Cause it's meant for you
Keep the faith when darkness comes I give myself to bring you peace The nights will bleed The days will burn I'll stay until you return So keep the faith Believe in this Just keep the faith 'Cause it's meant for you
