Prepare yourselves A new war has come upon the sons of man Lines have been drawn called to fire choked by thirst We speak in terms of a forgotten world within ourselves
Take me alive I confess every fault of my heart I am the ascent and the fall Take me alive I am the ascent and the fall
Held captive of judgment The dead are guilty until proven innocent Lives have been lost as teenage time bombs slit their wrists In broken homes and mass detentions reality is lost
Take me alive I confess every fault of my heart I am the ascent and the fall Take me alive I am the ascent and the fall
And I reject the labyrinth formed within me I confess every mistake that I made And I suppose you`ve been told To open fire on your conviction And I suppose that you`ll surrender Now that you`ve been warned
War has come upon the sons of man We are called to fire and choked by thirst We are called to fire within ourselves
Take me alive I confess every fault of my heart I am the ascent and the fall Take me alive I am the ascent and the fall
Held captive of judgment I am the ascent Held captive of judgment I am the fall
