The words you speak are empty inside out And sooner or later they all will see I'm not buying the disgust that you sell ‘Cause I have to keep remembering myself what I stand for And I'm here to talk things through But you'll probably never listen, you never do, you never ever listen to me Every time the soundtrack of my life meets my ears The feeling of true belief slowly fades to the back (to the back) Am I the only one, with the urge, with every song To unlock these god forbidden shackles, the shackles of my heart I couldn't bear with the thought of marching on without a cause I would rather do nothing, than doing something for the wrong reasons I would rather do nothing, than regret the things I've said Than regret the things I´ve said Honesty, and commitment, are the standards And would you please, keep in mind, the promises I've kept too long Am I the only one, with the urge, with every song To unlock these god forbidden shackles, the shackles to my heart I couldn't bear with the thought of marching on without a cause
