forgive me for the words i say
and meet me in a secret place
where we can plan and hide away
... and say goodbye...
to f***** up places
and all the people that sneer in our faces
and all the s*** that stirs and races
to be free to live and pursue our chases
of dreams, yes dreams brings youth to faces
and lengthens lives and supports our cases
or causes of purpose what more can be said?
purposeful living not the living of the dead
so please forgive me for the words i've said
it's all a matter of what's right in my head
and clearly a case of the living and the dead
so ranting and racing and panting and chasing
fighting the fight to find our own places
letting go or holding on,
strength in meekness or being strong
like some kind of game try not to be wrong
but not a game, no second chances
no do-overs, no second glances
no going back, only moving on
so make your choices
but make them strong
and fight the fight to be your own person
we all turn to dust so what is your purpose?
be loud, be true, be kind, be cruel
but be, yes be, so you can be you
so look in the mirror and look in your head
clear out the dust and make your own bed
in the end these are just words - what more can be said?
to finally live, or the life of the dead
so fight the fight to be your own person
we all turn to dust so what is your purpose?
be loud, be true, be kind, be cruel
but be, yes be, so you can be you
