Lyrics:

Look in my eyes and you will satisfy yourself
So many lives [I can describe/it's time to cry(?)]
Look at the picture of the sanctifying light
So many words to justify
How long? How long can this go on? How long?
It's heavy metal fatigue
Maybe the wind will dry your endless tears away
It's only the strong that can survive
Show me a river that is flowing to the sea
If you believe, then so do I
Hear me calling, I am falling, throw the line
Hold me closer, so much closer, and I'll unwind
How long? How long can this go on? How long?

[Solo]
Maybe the wind will dry your endless tears away
It's only the strong that can survive
Show me a river that is flowing to the sea
If you believe, then so do I
Hear me calling, I am falling, throw the line
Hold me closer, so much closer, and I'll unwind
Hear me calling, I am falling, throw the line
Hold me closer, so much closer, and I'll unwind
How long? How long can this go on? How long?
It's heavy metal fatigue
It's heavy metal fatigue
