Arena - Out Of The Wilderness lyrics

rate me

Soon there will come a time Whether a life like mine Reaches you Touches you Under a cloud of fear No longer need me here Feeling secure Part of the cause Dramatic setting for Friendship is not so pure Innocence...influence Now we have come so far Etched on my mind unsure Commonsense...Confidence Far reaching consequence Born from indifference Leave me here now Forgotten with pretence Forward and sufferance Leave me here now? When the time was right And the signs were clear I should have known But I didn't hear the warning ......The calling! When the moment came And the lonliness Was falling in I couldn't find a reason ....I stopped believing Once more to the breach There's nothing left to teach me now ....Now! Stand up and be counted No more time for doubt, stand up Stand up! Was it empathy or apathy we shared There's no understanding When honesty's not there No hand me down excuses Insincerity too far Are brave enough or strong enough when truths are told in halves Now its obvious It's so obvious to me Now its obvious In this wilderness you'll see That hollow words are reckless Allies souls can move apart Surface wounds infectious Through to your Achilles heart. "Forgive them, for they know not what they do" What is forgiveness? Who grants forgiveness? Who gives a damn? I'm breaking out of this wilderness I turn my back on all the make believe and promises A soldier of fortune I fell once before But I live again! I'm part of this once more! I'm breaking out of this wilderness I've cut my way through all the sympathy and tenderness A soldier of fortune I fell once before But I live again! I'm part of this once more!
