Child Within the Man

Newsflash, this just in Everybody bleeds Everybody burns Everybody drowns Straight up dangerous Cold blooded, venomous The child who speaks and won't give in Won't get a second chance No time for sweet romance For those who lead us into sin Well, I don't like what I see What we've become to be The die is cast, They'll take you down Everybody bleeds Everybody burns Everybody drowns It's hard to say and you don't wanna hear They didn't want us to know World gone outside Try to find out a plan How to understand The child within the man Defendant, do you plead? Guilty in first degree A gеneration selling out No more lеft or right No matter black or white The situation, volatile From the mouths of babes The mother we must save No longer living in denial Everybody bleeds Everybody burns Everybody drowns It's hard to say and you don't wanna hear They didn't want us to know World gone outside Try to find out a plan How to understand The child within the man Child within the man, whoa Straight up dangerous Cold blooded, venomous The child who speaks and won't give in I don't like what I see What we've become to be The die is cast, they'll take you down Everybody bleeds Everybody burns Everybody drowns It's hard to say and you don't wanna hear They didn't want us to know World gone outside Try to find out a plan How to understand The child within the man She's sick of the misery And The million times that he lied to me Can't say we got a lot to lose When when we got Is what we choose Denial, denial, what we got to lose? Denial, denial, what we choose?

Bad to the bone, comin’ out of the grave Skeletons, gonna break the cage Get the blood in circulation, infuse Been kickin’ down the pearly gates Your soul ain’t mine to save Ain’t never gonna seal our fate, so long overdue Freedom You ain’t got no time left to waste Now we’re kickin’ ass and takin’ names Fight fire with the back of my hand Makin’ love on first impression Ain’t got no chains to hold me Stir crazy for the last time End of conversation Ain’t never gonna seal out fate, ain’t under thе screw Freedom You ain’t got no time left to wastе Now we’re kickin’ ass and takin’ names Starin’ down the barrel of a gun No, no! Freedom You ain’t go no time left to waste Now we’re kickin’ ass and takin’ names Born to fight at what cost, have you won? Starin’ down the barrel of a gun You ain’t got no time left to waste Let ‘em loose to howl and desecrate Pour yourself a drink of high octane ‘Cause now we’re kickin’ ass and takin’ names Yeah!

In my mind I hold on to the dream Through fading sanity A cold heart never bleeds, no And now tonight We were meant to be Give me faith in my belief And I can hardly breathe I can hardly breathe The things you do to me I can’t believe You! Stand for something, well, you die for nothing You! Sick of living this nightmare Hey! You son of a gun Lighting your fire to all around you You! You’re not going down Taking your shots below the belt Say! Say it out loud Bang your head against the wall for nothing Stand! Stand your ground Stand for what you believe in Twist unfolding, sense eroding Now I’m holding on to all those things about you Now I’m holding on, hold on to thе dream Hey! Come togеther from all this fighting Hey! Come together united You! You son of a gun Looking out your window, coming to get you You! Taking your spit Walking these boots all over it Say! Say it out loud Bang your head against the wall for nothing Stand! Stand your ground Stand for what you believe in Twist unfolding, sense eroding Come back from above this land Abdicate the crown your stealing Off the ropes, your scripted cheating No! You! High class no class carpetbagger You! Thinking your so damn special You! You son of a bitch Copycat, charlatan, you beggar Hey! I’m not messing around Calling your shots all over town Say! Say it out loud Bang your head against the wall for nothing Stand! Stand your ground Stand for what you believe in Hold on to all those things about you Hold on to the dream Now I’m holding on Hold on to all those things about you Now I’m holding on Hold on to the dream Now I’m holding on Hold on, I can live without you Now I’m holding on Hold on to the dream

I achieve my solace Under the light of the moon Mechanize my system Not a moment too soon Under the black of darkness Under the light of the moon I oppose myself I convince myself Tired of livin’ under the wire Wakin’ up at high noon Readin’ the mind of a liar Singin’ the same old tune I forgive myself In a maniacal light Weaponize myself Fantasize it’s alright You sold your soul in this nightmare of a dream Mankind gone cold, hard darkness of sleep The open road is wherе I find my home And when I’m gone I know you’ll hold your own In thе Church of Resistance Where we kneel in fear Wrap yourself as a martyr here You sold your soul in this nightmare of a dream Mankind gone cold, hard darkness of sleep The open road is where I find my home And when I’m gone I know you’ll hold your own Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh, oh Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh, oh You sold your soul in this nightmare of a dream Mankind gone cold, hard darkness of sleep The open road is where I find my home And when I’m gone I know you’ll hold your own Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh, oh Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh, oh

Try, turn the page Leave behind the stale mistakes Let them fall to the floor Just walk away You're so young So much more you're meant to be Close your eyes, and hear these words It's not too late Some are lost until they've found Who they are among the clouds Even shooting stars burn out along the way Lost and now I'm found It won't be us this time around To love in vain To live again You flew to high You touched the sun Eternal truth you can't outrun Every angel in thе end can fall from grace I know it hurts In the еnd we have to learn There are some things in this life we cannot change Lost and now you're found It won't be you this time around To love in vain Oh, to live again I know it's hard to face Forever haunted by the ghosts of your mistakes We cannot change To live again You flew too high You touched the sky I know it hurts We have to learn There's some things in this life we cannot change [Instrumental] Lost and now you're found It won't be you this time around To love in vain Oh, to live again I know it's hard to face Forever haunted by the ghosts of your mistakes We cannot change To live again Try, turn the page Leave behind the stale mistakes
