Lyrics
The story's been set
And I regret that I have been portrayed
As a villain in your god-forsaking crimes
If the fault is all mine
Then can someone tell me why
That there's no blood on my hands now?
'Cause this song is being sung
Why are we looked down upon
For not being another one
To fall in line?
My convictions led me here
So this won't be a waste of time
For me
This is exactly where I need to be
Right now
So why does a difference in opinion
Mean that I am wrong?
Clear eyes mean heart and a mind
That won't forget where we came from
It's not that you were wrong
But your life's not for me
The story's been set
And I regret that I have been portrayed
As a villain in your god-forsaking crimes
If the fault is still mine
Then can someone tell me why
I'm still breathing?
And I'm sorry but I did not choose your life
There's nothing I can say
But I will show you these words aren't in vain
My heart's still the same
And that's why I, and that's why I
I will love the unloved
I will cherish the hated one
I will welcome the shunned
With my sweat and my blood
And if we break down the walls of this world
Then we will burn through the hearts of the still
And if I must stand alone
Then I will stand with my allies
'Cause it seems to me
Like we're two enemies
Fighting on the same side
Can't you see
This is all a means to an end?
And I hope that one day we
Can live in harmony
Unified in the same goal
'Cause now is not the time
For us to draw the lines
In the sand to decide
Which side we're fighting for
