Thinking of my redemption
is it in your contention
denied my own salvation
through desecration
Riding the miles
as the end draws near
can you see those white lines
driving deeper into my fear
Too vulnerable
for this kind of life
Too much believing
has left me reeling
When will it be my time
I want to be free
can you feel my desire
prayers to an endless degree
From my own interdiction
there is no penetration
an end to nuclear proliferation
stopping the insurgency
Must be losing my credibility
god ain't listening
his gray eminence
has forsaken my existence
I don't know what you are no more
living in this daily drudgery
like some kind of under-dog
is this who am I supposed to be
Why are you so untouchable
when did I become so unforgivable
I can't go on no more
living in this misery
Day by Day
I see it coming closer
armageddon, total annihilation
mankind's own destruction
I can't breath
suffocating in this radiation
does the after-life really glow
cause I would prefer to burn
Let me say to you, one last thing
I wouldn't worry no more,love is everlasting
all you have to do is the dying
let me lye in peace, may he bless my soul.
