The Strength To Go On

Lyrics for The Strength To Go On

Welcome home While away They have tampered with the locks And your things they rearranged "We propose A better way" Said the note they left behind In their wake of disarray You fell in place Don't fall asleep They'll find us here I know a place to disappear As a voice proclaimed What we are is the sum of a thousand lies What we know is almost nothing at all But we are what we are til the day we die Or til we don't have the strength to go on Til we don't have the strength to go o-o-on Let us cry Let us be Let us open up our hearts Without fear of anything Faith alone's All we need To traverse this burning bridge Now before it gets too late you claim, "it's fine" But the heart reveals What smiles betray Your sad, sad eyes gave you away And don't you know? What we are is the sum of a thousand lies What we know is almost nothing at all But we are what we are til the day we die Or til we don't have the strength to go on Til we don't have the strength to go o-o-on Our shoulders bear an awful weight But still we trudge on just the same Our colors run then leave a stain They blacken our once honest name How can we argue? Tell me Over the fury and the fire How many times can we tell you that we Are not like you, we see right through The poor disguise that fails to fool The wary eye is trained on you What we are is the sum of a thousand lives What we know is almost nothing at all But we are what we are til the day we die Or til we don't have the strength to go on Til we don't have the strength to go o-o-on What we are is the sum of a thousand lives What we know is almost nothing at all But we are what we are til the day we die Or til we don't have the strength to go on Til we don't have the strength to go o-on Yeah, we don't have the strength to go o-o-on
