|
Like a freight train blow to the chest |
|
You taste the backhand slap from |
|
GodBut you say that nothing's new |
|
You've lived a life of pain and loss |
|
The scars you bare attest |
|
To the trials you've overcome |
|
But proud, you plant your feet |
|
Where stronger men had to run |
|
What do you feel inside |
|
Under the wheels of life? |
|
A truce forgotten, a truce erased |
|
This heart you've opened |
|
Has already been replaced |
|
Woke from a heavy sleep |
|
With a call that broke you the news |
|
You had to hear it twice |
|
And both times it ripped |
|
And pierced you through |
|
So now you stand alone |
|
Looking down upon this mess |
|
Another day creeps by, yes |
|
Another day, another test |
|
What do you feel inside |
|
Under the wheels of life? |
|
A truce forgotten, a truce erased |
|
This heart you've opened |
|
Has already been replaced |
|
What you've gained from this life |
|
Is nothing, dues remain |
|
Take or give, makes no difference |
|
You still feel the shame |
|
What do you feel inside |
|
Under the wheels of life? |
|
A truce forgotten, a truce erased |
|
This heart you've opened |
|
Has already been replaced |
