I've watched the days pass
One by one until the fall of man
And seen the cynics feed the jaded
Merely scraps and bones
The kingdom shaken
It's foundation nearly turned to sand
With foolish faith in faulted leaders
That I must disown
Rise again
This darkened heart betrays what
I've always held so dear
Now rise again
This darkened heart, it bleeds fast
For all my family
Now rise again
This darkened heart, it bleeds fast
For all humanity
Now rise again
This darkened heart, it bleeds fast
Condemns my soul
I've laid to rest the false belief
Of average stock in me
I'll not relent no average destiny
I'll reach the point where mankind's
Sins no longer rest in me
Your long hard road, this manifest destiny
Now rise again
This darkened heart betrays what
I've always held so dear
Now rise again
This darkened heart, it bleeds fast
For all my family
Now rise again
This darkened heart, it bleeds fast
For all humanity
Now rise again
This darkened heart, it bleeds fast
Condemns my soul
I will not be held down again
I will not be held down again
I will not be held down again
I will not be held down again
I will not be held down again
