[Verse 1] Like sand, fragile life can hover away Materializin', even my own soul for walls My life a cage My smile's edges torn from ropes and nails I grope my paralytic lips to count my bane [Verse 2] Taste of bittersweet I'm lost and I'm crawlin' Why (inside) into mud and sand From roots I can rise (rise) [Verse 3] Behind your life's hive hide your real lies Suddenly a question penetrates your weltered mind: “Where's my pride?” Westernizin' every motion shatter all of your pride
Darkenin' the ground you lie, where's your pride? [Verse 4] Throughout the world great wings of night Obscured by moments tearing wind strikes (and) Illuminated, lighted from cold white and I am alive Taste of bittersweet I'm lost and I'm crawlin' Why (inside) into mud and sand From roots I can rise (rise) No one ever stares my pa**ionless eyes (eyes) Piles of shooting stars are rockin' the sky
