Lyrics
To my suprise, I realize
A daydream, waking vision
With no compromise, to what I despise
Holding fast my religeon
I've made contact with an honest approach
Called it integrity
With no plan of attack and no one to coach
I make my stand defiantly
Can't find my way
There will dawn a new day
For this heart and mind being made
Will never fade
Here I go again . . . I'm back at zero
Let me break before I bend . . . I've got some heroes
Given strength to defend . . . standing face to face with fear
Every tunnel has an end . . . the light grows nearer
Pessimists say we were born to die
They believe their life is a lie
Caging themselves into this fate
Expecting the world to end in eternal wait
Can't find my way
There will dawn a new day
For this heart and mind being made
Will never fade
Lose and you will learn . . . winning does not come cheap
Fire will often burn . . . the wound runs so deep
Words do not concern . . . your not some mindless sheep
The earth will always turn . . . take small steps before you leap
Life lives within the one who grows
Fade away or take the blows
Never give up, never give in
Never stand still, stagnation is the sin
Can't find my way
There will dawn a new day
For this heart and mind being made
Will never fade
Give me new hope, dawn a new day
Blind were my eyes, but now I see the way
And now I feel my pulse beat so hard in me
I feel my conciousness start to reel
Oh, I feel something inside of me change
It feels so good yet so strange
My conciousness has been rearranged
Martian idealism, criticism, cynicism
Share the water, never thirst
Thou aren't God to be the first
I can tell, we will be the first of our kind
To be the ones, the true believers
Within ourselves wisdom keepers
Bilbo Baggins slaying dragons
True believers, Gandolf seekers
I can tell, we will be the first of our kind
Life lives within the one who grows
Fade away or take the blows
Never give up, never give in
Never stand still stagnation is the sin
Can't find my way
There will dawn a new day
For this heart and mind being made
Will never fad
