I am defending a life that is ending Why must I live with this? Someone is dying and it leaves me crying I can't reach Heaven's bliss I'm like a child that is lost in the wild You take my quivering hand You make me strong, and keep me going along You guide me through this land
In time we've lost our innocence We've done some things that made no sense With hurtful words that broke our hearts Tore everything we loved apart Write the words that flow from my mind Catch the tears that fall from my eyes
This nation's at war, I can't see much more Soldiers die in the sand Blood and oil begin to boil In death is no helping hand I'm so frightened, but my visions you brighten Heaven awaits in your kiss I was lost in the past, but you're here at last It's you that I always missed
In time we've lost our innocence We've done some things that made no sense With hurtful words that broke our hearts Tore everything we loved apart Write the words that flow from my mind Catch the tears that fall from my eyes
