Lyrics for A Choice?

You need me, for I feel the weight of your shame And I feel a force of your unending pain I will pull it from your spirit and you'll see How it glows and grows inside your dying soul I- I feel- I feel the pain, and the shame coming out of me It's rising, it's rising like a big, dark, heavy cloud Right in front of my face It's ugly, ugly! But I feel free, I feel free and light And happy I'm floating I think I can dance I can dance! I can dance! Can't you see? You're not free Can't you see? You're not free I can show you my way But it must be chosen I can show you my way But it must be chosen Guns are all around you Guns are glory Guns are all around you Guns are glory You will show them my way It will blow them away You will show them my way It will blow them away You will show them my way It will blow them away
