Why long (3x) I lose my strength have something to do with me you will die. Why long I turn all the taboos in this world, breaking all I touch the hollow men to me are cool home I can be understood from different angles everywhere
My knuckles all bruised up from knocking on heaven's door My body still aching from sleeping on cement floors I was taught to be non-violent when I'm at war But it's so hard to move in silence when the lions roar
Chorus
Why long (3x) I lose my strength have something to do with me you will die. Why long I turn all the taboos in this world, breaking all I touch the hollow men to me are cool home I can be understood from different angles everywhere
Suffering no more, oh yes, a fight and I fight and I fight until I can't no more, You see these whips and these chains around my neck just might be my flaw, But these whips on my back represent what I endured
Chorus
Why long (3x) I lose my strength have something to do with me you will die. Why long I turn all the taboos in this world, breaking all I touch the hollow men to me are cool home I can be understood from different angles everywhere
You lift me up when I was down, no hope, no vision Lift me up when all of y'all were against me Now you'd come back to scarlet, the dark days They'd all illuminate, yeah
