STRENGTH

[maca_jew]

one by one i see them drop like flies
i'm the ghost here
trapped in the lies
you're the host here
i'm just stuck on all sides

stripped bare and lost at sea
stiff like a cross
tied at the feet
forever i'll be lost
through this life i've been beat

i'm the bird that flies alone
in this life i will not cheat
i'll make the air my only home
the clouds will hide me
only to them i'm shown

but i can be stronger
like the eagle i soar
i'll stand my ground longer
my heart no longer torn
i am 100 years younger

you can beat me at my wings
but i'll still lift my head
this song i'll forever sing
...i'm no longer dead
