1v- why does the nite-time bring me fear what do you have that brings me here life was never bonded to be long without the pain of doing wrong i fight to understand your words enough to fuse them into song i walk on i walk on strong 2v- within the life of jesus christ youll find the flaw that cant be priced [ he was just a man ] i read your mortems post-ante and then a hundred times again i know how bertrand russell feels i know the pain of using pen and then a thousand times again 3v- i know the long hard road to hell i know the costly toll as well ive used the courage gandhi used ive suffered more than just abuse thru strength of will i took a pen and then i used it to transcend i shape opinion for myself i take compassion off the shelf im rich in love and i share the wealth 4v- the age of reasons come and gone ill die like every man has done i might rage against the dying light into the darkness of the nite your words have made me less alone i wrote the spirit in the stone for you the spirit in the stone
