You can take it If you want it You can break it If you need it
I'll never fight another day But you can take the flesh not the soul away They're calling from the lions den They're fighting for the ghosts of holy men
Into the arena we climb We look to the sky Into the arena we climb You and I
Is it over When the light goes? Bella nova Tell me who knows
Scars will beat the minds of men Can you feel the thorns upon the skin? I'll never fight another day till I die
{Chorus} Yes I hear you Yes I see you Yes I feel you And I need you
Is it over, I'll never fight another day When the light goes? But you can take the flesh, not the soul away Bella nova, they're calling from the lions den Tell me who knows? They're fighting for the souls of holy men
In the distance, I can see them On the trade winds, across stormy seas. They are many, please believe me, There's something to find, There's someplace here deep inside of my mind.
There is a time where, There is no place here. Tell me if you get there... Heaven
Can you see this land I'm dreaming? Such a place, I hope we will find. Is it there now? Tell me where now, 'Cos I need to know. Believe... It's still deep inside of my mind.
There is a time where, There is no place here. Tell me if you get there... Heaven
Standing on the border, Waiting on the line. Silence is a stranger, In these troubled times. I recall a better place, Where I controlled my mind. We had no fears at all... The day before the war.
Hands across the water, The sun is in the East. Who will feed the famine After lions feast? In the name of Jesus, In the name of God, You took it all in vain... The day before the war.
Standing on the border, Waiting on the line. Feet in bloody water, Deafened by the crime. I recall the beauty, Young will never see. We had no fears at all... The day before the war.
Hearts across the water, The sun is in the East. Ships arrived this morning, From the burning sea. Take away the glory, Take away the pain. You were a friend of mine... The day before the war.
Don't tell me what you are Don't tell me what you're after Don't tell me what you want Don't tell me what you need Aren't you just the one to always point the finger I don't care for you 'cos you don't care for me !
U bring me down........repeat
COUNTER RAP U bring me down/You're giving me no hope Sucking off our land/Blowing off the smoke Virus in the veins/That run into the sea Poisoning the world/With you're generosity
U bring me down/You're killing me with lies You take away our ears/ Won't take away my eyes The red red sea will return unto the vein Covering the world/Are you happy with your gain
REFRAIN
I could breathe, I could fly The day before you came (Think you own my skin now) Break the chains, free the slave Turn the tides against you now
Talking to the sky You promise evolution Progression of the mind By selling of the soul The last will be the first In the dust of revolution
Someone cares for me But no one cares for you
REFRAIN 2
Will I breathe? Will I see? Far beneath the clearest stream (To the deepest ocean) Break the chains, free the slaves Give back the blood, that you drain from this world now
Took the ground, From underneath my feet. Silent town, Ghosts this empty street.
I see the home that once was mine, Now just bones of former life. Touch this page of sacred time, again, I see you call...
You don't have to be strong for me. I won't shoot your defences down. Whatever happens, I want you to see We can face it together. And turn it around.
A new life Grows within his hands. Coming back To this promised land.
And with these bones we will rebuild, To the flesh of future life. Giving back that sacred time, again...
You don't have to be strong for me. I won't shoot your defences down. Whatever happens, I want you to see, We can face it together. And turn it around.
