Chewing The Stitch

(album: Children Of Fire - 2011)

Oh my God, I can feel something moving
The air is still growing thick but it's soothing
I've done nothing to merit forgiving
But if the chance should arise and you hear me

Make my voice be the proof that they need
And my prayers even for the charge I've seen

I've never felt so alive
But when I touch you make a change in
I can't believe I'm alive
Passed your attempts to free the pain in

You ought to know
Shine above
A calloused heart can still be raised so
Sing and believe, let us know
You hold the voice that changes slaves

Oh the journey of ships are just starting
All the guilt and the shame of the games I played
Depths in my heart start to fade

And I will sing for every one of us
Forever drawn to a unchanging love
Feel the sick until you taste the blood
Find so much more when you're giving up
We're giving up
Giving up

We are monsters on our own (we are monsters on our own)
Banded together we'll overcome (banded together we'll overcome)
We are monsters on our own (we are monsters on our own)
Banded together we'll overcome (banded together we'll overcome)

Now that I've found you

I've never felt so alive
But when I touch you make a change in
I can't believe I'm alive
Passed your attempts to free the pain in

You ought to know
Shine above
A calloused heart can still be raised so
Sing and believe, let us know
You hold the voice that changes slaves

Don't expect us to apologize,
Rebel dogs in the spotlight
We want no truce
No truce or compromise
