I've started to ask so many questions
In a world with so few answers
What can truly change the thought of man?
When denial of love has become
Greater than love itself?
It's the triumph of hate
Seems to be the only thing
Keeping us awake
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
We are the long lost
The thought of running blind
Brings no deliverance to me
Shackles and chains
Hold us down
As one by one
The long lost
Find comfort in
This security
It seems like I'm alone
But I feel so alive
But I feel so alive
It seems like I'm alone
But I feel so alive
But I feel so alive
Why do I do this to myself?
Oh God, why do I do this to myself?
Why do I do this to myself?
Oh God, why do I do this to myself?
With empty hands
I'll show I'm ready
To begin again
(Begin again)
This new life
Where the victim
Is not myself
Not myself
Con!
The thought of knowing I
Have found something with meaning
Gives me strength to walk away
From the long lost
And set these shackles and chains free
I've learned in life
To never let a single failure
Ever get the best of me
Ever get the best of me
I've worked too hard
To never let a single failure
Ever get the best of me
Ever get the best of me
With empty hands
(With empty hands)
I'll show I'm ready
To begin again
Of this new life
Of this new life
Where the victim
Is not myself
Even when
Your world
Falls apart
For us, this
This will just
Be the start
(The start)
The start, oh
