So I step off like a wounded child before you — I never knew what it took to be real — Until I looked in your eyes, Shattering
myths about the lie — Then I crawl inside — Show me the light and take away how it feels when they crucify me — And I say — I know I’ll make it
through but it’s hard to be real — But you show through suffering your true colors — You’re always standing tall and though I try to be — I’m feeling
weak because I stray from the tree — But what’s it doing here — Then I fall back into line — Where they hurt me — I do my time over again but you
can’t — Where do you find the power — And I say — I know I’ll make it through but it’s hard to be real — But you show through suffering your true colors
anyway — Take me alive oh they take me alive — And they suck it out — And I say — I know it’s hard to be real — But your show your true colors anyway
