I will rise in resistance Sing the oath of rebellion End cease-fire on this high wire Head to toe in vanity
When those eyes in the mirror stare back at me I’m reminded that the ghost of pride is clear to see
Wipe away the weakness Will you let those scars define you? Or will they adorn you as we carve our way to victory?
Doubt is crying out but I refuse to let it drown me Wearing down my fight till nothing’s left
I SAY CRIER I SAY LIAR I SAY RISE IN HELL I stand gazing down at death as they say … WAR I’LL WAGE WAR I HATE WAR They say fight for peace… but what is that?
Raise a shield to the bullets Hold my ground, all I got now But I’m defenseless, all but helpless if it gives beneath my feet
I turn from the mirror, that desperate plea I refuse and can’t believe those eyes belong to me
Come on, one more breath My ravaged voice betrays me mid-shout Will you never hear those final words I failed to choke out?
I tried to survive by putting all my faith in instinct But now I regret – what have I done?
I SAY CRIER I SAY LIAR I SAY RISE IN HELL I am just about to BURST as they say … WAR I’LL WAGE WAR I HATE WAR There’s no end to this, can’t you see that?
A cowardly façade weaves into my voice As I call for war, blinded by this far-fetched noble cause Although I had a choice, I believed the lies But it’s all a dream, ending when I open up my eyes
Come on, one more breath My ravaged voice betrays me mid-shout Will you never hear those final words I failed to choke out?
I tried to survive by putting all my faith in instinct But now I regret – what have I done?
I SAY CRIER I SAY LIAR I SAY RISE IN HELL I stand gazing down at death as they say … WAR I’LL WAGE WAR I HATE WAR They say fight for peace… Does it exist?
My hand, can you reach it? My cry, can you hear it? Can you, can you tell me if this “dream” was worth it?
My hand, can you reach it? My cry, can you hear it? Can you, can you help me? Wake me from this nightmare
