We can't keep something alive That has no heart Doing what is good Is not doing what is right So the beat goes on
Time has come to be a hero See your name in bright lights Swept away with grand illusions Force fed visions of fame Your guard is down You are the hunted In a corporate world That has no shame Contracts signed all hail the new kings Kept in a state of eternal bliss to be
Stranded like thousands that went before me Stranded but I will never lay down come on
[Chorus :] Break out, rise up from oblivion Rise up, sinners an saints Break out, rise up from oblivion Rise up, black sheep shall survive
Bathing in short living glory Quickly becoming a faded memory Drowning in the hidden vortex Overflowed with ruined lives Beaten by the glamour forces *harvest fruitful lays between the lies This phoenix rises out from the ashes From a light that never goes out
Stranded like thousands that went before me Stranded but I will never lay down come on
[Chorus (1x)] Stranded like thousands that went before me Stranded but I will never lay down Stranded like thousands that went before me Stranded but I will never lay down come on
