Tonedeff - Behind the Gates (Unreleased Alt Verse) lyrics

Lights out, no reason to fight now Silence abound, no question my life was in doubt But I found a profound sense of peace as I rise from the crowd That are crying out loud over the flesh that still lies on the ground I'm reminded of how I've kinda been righteous I'm proud that I was just like this Renowned, the shrine of politeness The town's retired fireman, honoured vet with a likeness So why'd the power's abound with a mind refined as a wine Family ties never bonded me, had a child who was nine when she Chose her Mom as a parent, our marriage failing divisively Visitation and sharing wasn't apparent till privacy Hit a snag because h**n made her mama a pariah, see When she perished and took my daughter's inheritance silently Least moved to her to an environment she's be livin' in quietly Sacrificed my whole life to raise her as pious as I could be So that she'd enter heaven without bias from the highest seat Up in the sky, she never grew to see eye to eye with me Blinded by adolescence, her pa**ions acted defiantly Wait! Is my mind in a haze? Look! I've arrived at these gates I see a figure standing guard who invites me to pray
