Lead the Way

You can see me but can you see yourself? Fight for freedom fight for war fight, doesn't matter what you stand for Fight for nothing fight for fame, never knowing you put us to shame So pick your conscience up from the floor You betrayed it for so long, what are you fighting for? ...yourself or for everything? So how can you tell us how to act when you don't know who you are? You can see me but can you see yourself? Let the lantern of passion lead the way Let the lantern of passion lead the way Fight for yourself, fight for your pride, do anything you can to deny Fight for the right to fight, fight, as long as you can do it in spite So pick you oppinionated mind apart And remember, once you had a heart Your heart is on fire Fighting for any cause you can blame for your own mistakes You lost your desire Now aware that the flames consumed you completely You are an empty shell full of hate Walk towards the light The lantern of passion will give you back your life Fight for yourself, or fight for nothing! Fight for nothing and fight for everything Your oppinion becomes obsolete Your cause has become to promote yourself And nothing else You can see me but can you see yourself? Let the lantern of passion lead the way Let the lantern of passion lead the way For yourself or for everything? So how can you tell us how to act when you don't know who you are? Die!

You hover above and I can do nothing but stare As your greedy black eyes search and glare The skies turn grey and then you will come Black scavengers of the night I loathe you with my entire strawfilled heart You have come only to pick a fight You grusome creatures are the only company I have To you I am a place to sit, while you ignore my wrath The loneliest scarecrow in the world Proud but useless you are The loneliest scarecrow in the world Crows, pick me apart! So someone will fix me again I am nothing to you, lonely scarecrow, but I have feelings too It is funny how humans are very much like me, are you like me? I am nothing to you but lonely scarecrow, but I have feelings too, do you? It is funny how humans are very much like me, are you like me? It is funny how humans are very much like me The loneliest scarecrow in the world Proud but useless you are The loneliest scarecrow in the world Crows, pick me apart! So someone will fix me again Pinned to a tree destined to live my eternal life With nothing left but crows by my side Slowly picking me apart, to bring me peace So you'll fix me, human contact brings me relief And after I've been fixed I will hang here with them Waiting for them to pick me apart so I can be fixed again So we live in a malevolent never ending game of sin I need the creatures in order for my life cycle to end and begin

The snake creeps around in your paradise, tasting the air, sly creature of Eden, cunning as the devil himself. It watches you in your happy place, pushing you around a bit, there by your side at your best moments when they turn to your worst When it turns your best into your worst From the beginning there was a snake Chewing on your conscience from within But were you really not aware that all along it was your own private sin? It watches you in your happy place, pushing you around a bit There by your side at your best moments when they turn to your worst It is so easy blaming everyone else for your choices But your priorities are your own It was so hard to consider our choices But in the end our priorities are our own Nobody is perfect, even Adam and Eve were fooled by the snake in you Slithering, deceiving, denying yourself and everyone else the truth I am sorry that your winning streak didn't last But it was you who threw it away The stakes were high and no one thought You would be the one to betray You blinded yourself Friendship has been fading, you didn't pay attention to their cries Did you not care or was it not worth a try? Maybe something else caught your eye Not realising the snake was you not I You were here in your happy place, puhing everyone around a bit There by your own side at your best moments And you turned them to your worst Nothing left to say now but goodbye
