I've thought about it
Living without it
'Cause that's what I do
When the world blinds me
I've dwelled within
The realms of time
But it ain't my friend
I'm on the run again

The walls are crumbling
From inside
My present and future
Seem so far
Trying to find the key
To open the gates of hell
As I'm walking alone I'm

Dreaming, searching
For a reason
Trying to
Understand it all
Can't find no comfort
Beneath this treason
I'll raise my flag
I'm backing down

Everybody
Stands beside me
When I see the gold
That flows through life
But nobody can understand why
I'm backing down now

Forgive me
But it's the truth
I give up the fight
And I give up on you
Take the gold
Take all the goods
I will find my way
As long as I keep on

Dreaming, searching
For a reason
Trying to
Understand it all
Gonna find some comfort
Beneath this treason
I'll raise my flag
I'm backing down

Everybody
Stands beside me
When I see the gold
That flows through life
But nobody can understand why
I'm backing down now

Nobody
Can deny it
Because I feel it deep
Inside my heart
Everybody stands and everybody waits
As the blood runs through my face

What a disgrace!

(Solo)

Everybody
Stands beside me
When I see the gold
That flows through life
But nobody can understand why
I'm backing down now

Nobody
Can deny it
Because I feel it deep
Inside my heart
Everybody stands and everybody waits
As the blood runs through my face

Everybody
Stands beside me
Should I be
On my own?
I'm backing down now!
