Lyrics:

(Hess) Lord give me the strength to fight the things I can change And find me comfort in things that will be Show me a road that I could take That never leads To an empty life along Just take me to a place Where I could lift myself on a pedestal And don't let me fall 'Cause in my state of mind In my state of mind I'm worried what I might say or do Steel bars they start to close around my feet I'll never leave I walked with a devil on my shoulder Everyday It left me the scars that I will wear Over me And the withered hands of time Still reaching out for me Try to rip me off my pedestal And force me to crawl When all my dreams are strangled I don't want to live Now this noose around my neck Has found a comfortable fit
