Merritt Gant - Live Young, Die Free lyrics

The distant sound of mercy Ringing in my eyes Far from the ma**es fades away Closed my eyes and waited for the pain to pa** Recalled a little story Heard today Yeah, I'm feeling trapped So locked away Caught in a downward spiral In, into the black I won't be back Don't need to see your face Don't need to hear a word you say Don't need to know your name Or why you're here Shadows of the past Appear in front of me Into the ma**es disappear The sound of silence Ringing for a greater good To this point I can't believe my ears Yeah, coming unwrapped Starting to fray Walking the final mile In, into the black I won't be back Choose to be here awhile Then I saw your face And I heard the words you said Then I recalled your name And why I'm here When I looked into your eyes Saw how much you cried I had a revelation The pain wouldn't last The scars they would last Into God's creation Blessed secrets holding me Then we all close our eyes Lay down and sighed Live young, Die Free A distant chime of mercy Ringing one last time Into the ma**es turns to clay Molded into what is now The greater good To close just a story..yesterday Don't need to see your face Don't need to hear a word you say Don't need to know your name Or why you're here Then the child of a liar put his hands into the fire Called it discontention And a man with the word repeated what he heard Lead to ma** confusion Blessed secrets agony Then the child closed his eyes Laid down and died Live Young, Die Free
