Creed - Weathered
Bullets
Walking around, I hear the sounds
[of] the earth seeking relief
[I'm] Trying to find a reason to live
with all this clutter and hate
I hold these thorns in my side
Hold these thorns in my side
I know I have something free
I have something so alive
I think they shoot cause they want it
I think they shoot cause they want it
I think they shoot cause they want it
I feel forces all around me
C'mon raise your hands
Those who hide behind the shadows,
live with all that's dead
Look at me....Look at me...
At least look at me when you should a bullet
through my head, through my head through my...
In my lifetime when I'm disgraced
[by] jealousy and lies.
I live my life filled with love cause
my life has got inside someone else's mind
Look at me...Look at me....
At least look at me when you shoot a bullet
through my head, through my head, through my head
Hey, all I want is what's real,
something to touch and can feel
I'll hold it close and never let it go
Said why, why do we live this life,
with all this hate inside?
I'll give it away cause I don't want it no more.
Please, help me find a place, somewhere far away
yes, I'll go and you'll never see me again.
Look at me...Look at me...
At least look at me when you shoot a bullet
through my head, through my head, through my
Look at me....Look at me...
At least look at me when you shoot a bullet
through my head, through my head, through my head
Freedom Fighter
The mouths of envious always find another the door
down at the gates of paradise they will be us down some more
Our mission's set it stone, cause the writing's on the wall
I'll scream it from the mountain tops "pride comes before the fall"
So many thoughts to share, all this energy to give
unlike those who hide the truth, i tell it like it is
If the truth will set you free, [I] feel sorry for your soul
Can't you hear the ringing cause for you the bell tolls.
I'm just a freedom fighter, no remorse,
raging on in holy war, soon there'll come a day
when your face to face with me
Can't you hear us coming, we're marching all around
Can't you see we're coming, close your eyes it's over now
Can't you hear us coming, the fight has only just begun
Can't you see we're coming?
I'm just a freedom fighter, no remorse
Raging on in holy war, soon there'll come a day
When you're face to face with me.
Freedom fighter no remorse,
raging on in holy war, soon there'll come a day
when you're face to face, to face to face,
to face to face with me
Who's Got My Back?
Run, hide
all that was sacred to us, sacred to us
see the signs
The covenant has been broken, by mankind
leaving us with no shoulder, with no shoulder
to rest our head on, to rest our head on
to rest our head on
Who's got my back now, when all we have left
is deceptive, so disconnected, what is the truth now?
{What is the truth now}
There's still time, all that has been devastated
can be recreated
realize, we pick up the broken pieces of our lives
giving ourselves to each other, ourselves to each other
to rest our head on, to rest our head on
to rest our head on
Who's got my back now, when all we have left is deceptive,
so disconnected, what is the truth now?
Who's got my back now, when all we have left is deceptive
so disconnected, what is the truth now?
Tell me the truth now, tell us the truth now
Who's got my back now, when all we have left is deceptive
so disconnected, what is the truth now?
Who's got my back now, when all we have left is deceptive
so disconnected, what is the truth now?
Signs
This is not about age,
time served on the earth doesnt mean you grow in mind
This is not about God,
Spiritual insinuations seem to shock our nation
Come with me, I'm fading underneath the lights
come with me, come with me, come with me now
This is not about race,
It's a decision to stop the division in your life, in our lives
This is not about sex, sex
we all know sex sells and the whole whole is buying
come with me, I'm fading underneath the lights
come with me, come with me, come with me now
Can't you see the signs, see the signs now?
Can't you see the signs, see the signs now?
Can't you see the signs, see the signs now?
Can't you see the signs, see the signs now?
Can't you see them, see the signs
you see them, all the signs we see them
Can't you see them, see the signs
you see them, all thes signs we see them
One Last Breath
Please come now, I think I'm falling,
I'm holding on to all I think is safe
I seems I found the road to nowhere
and I'm trying to escape
I yelled back when I heard thunder
but I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say, let me say
Hold me now, I'm six feet from the edge
and I'm thinking that maybe six feet
ain't so far down
I'm looking down, now that it's over
reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
somewhere in his grace
I cried out "Heaven save me"
but I'm down to one last breath,
and with it let me say, let me say
Hold me now, I'm six feet from the edge
and I'm thinking, maybe six feet
ain't so far down
I'm so far down
Sad eyes follow me, but I still believe
there's something left for me
So please stay with me,
cause i still believe there's something
left for you and me
for you and me, for you and me
Hold me now, I'm six feet from the edge
and I'm thinking,
Hold me now, I'm six feet from the edge
and I'm thinking maybe six feet
aint' so far down.
Please come down, I think I falling
I'm holding on to all I think is safe...
My Sacrifice
Hello my friend, we meet again
It's been awhile, where should we begin
it feels like forever
within my heart are memories
of perfect love that you gave to me
oh I remember
When you are with me, I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others, we'll fly
this brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice
We've seen our shares of ups and downs
oh how quickly life can turn around
in an instant
It feels so good to re-unite
within yourself and within your mind
Let's find peace there
When you are with me, I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others, we'll fly
this bring tears to my eyes
My sacrifice
I just want to say hello again
I just want to say hello, again
When you are with me, I'm free
I'm careless I beleive
Above all the others, we'll fly
this brings tears to my eyes
My Sacrifice
Stand Here With Me
You always reached out to me
and helped me beleive
all those memories we share
I will cherish everyone of them
but the truth of it is,
there's a right way to live
and you showed me
so now you live on
in the words of a song
you're a melody
Cause you stand here with me, now
you stand here with me, now
Just when fear blinded me
you taught me to dream
I'll give you everything I am
and still fall short of what you've done for me
In this life that I live
I hope I can give love unselfishly
I've learned the world is bigger than me
you're my daily dose of reality
You stand here with me, now
you stand here with me, now
on and on we sing
on and on we sing
on and on we sing this song
cause you stand here with me now
On and on we sing [you stand here with me]
on and on we sing [you stand here with me]
on and on we sing [you stand here with me]
on and on we sing [you stand here with me]

Weathered
I lie awake on a long dark night
I can't seem to tame my mind
slings and arrows are killing me inside
maybe I can't accept the life that's mine
maybe I can't accept the life that's mine
Simple living is my desperate cry
been trading love with indifference
and yeah it suits me just fine
I try to hold on but I'm calloused to the bone
maybe that's why I feel alone, yeah
maybe that's why I feel so alone
'cause me I'm rusted and weathered
barely holding together
I'm covered with skin that peels
and it just won't heal
no, it just won't heal
The sun shines and I can't avoid the light
I think I'm holding on to life too tight
ashes to ashes and dust to dust
sometimes I feel like giving up,
sometimes I feel like giving up
'cause me I'm rusted and weathered
barely holding together
I'm covered with skin that peels
and it just won't heal
I'm rusted and weathered,
barely holding together
I'm covered with skin that peels
and it just won't heal
The day, reminds me of you
the night hides your truth
the earth is a voice speaking to you
"take all this pride and leave it behind"
cause one day it ends, one day we die
believe what you will, that is your right
but I choose to win, I choose to fight
to fight
cause me I'm rusted and weathered
barely holding together
I'm covered with skin that peels
and it just won't heal
I'm rusted and weathered,
barely holding together
I'm covered with skin that peels
and it just won't
covered with skin that peels
and it just won't
covered with skin that peels
and it just won't heal.
Hide
To what do I owe this gift my friend,
my life, my love, my soul?
I've been messing with the devil way too long
and it's making me grow old, making me grow old
Let's leave oh let's get away,
get lost in time
where there is no reason left to hide.
let's leave oh let's get away
run in fields of time
where there is no reason left to hide
What'cha gonna do with this gift dear child,
give life, give love, give soul?
divided is the one who dances,
for the soul is so exposed, so exposed.
Let's leave oh let's get away
get lost in time
where there's no reason left to hide
let's leave oh let's get away,
run in fields of time
where there's no reason left to hide
there is no reason to hide
there is no reason to hide
there is no reason to hide
there is no reason to hide
let's leave oh let's get away
get lost in time
where there's no reason left to hide
let's leave oh let's get away
run in fields of time
where there's no reason left to hide
Don't Stop Dancing
At times life is wicked and I just can't see the light
A silver lining sometimes isn't enough to make some wrongs seem right
whatever life brings, I've been through everything
and now I'm on my knees again,
but I know I must go on,
although I hurt, I must be strong,
because inside I know, that many feel this way
Children, don't stop dancing,
believe you can fly
away.......away
At times life's unfair and you know it's plain to see
hey, God I know I'm just a dot in this world,
have you forgot about me?
whatever life brings, I've been through everything
and now I'm on my knees again,
but I know I must go on,
although I hurt I must be strong,
because inside I know, that many feel this way
children, don't stop dancing
believe you can fly
away....away
Am I hiding, in the shadows?
forget the pain and forget the sorrows
Am I hiding, in the shadows?
forget the pain and forget the sorrows
but I know I must go on [go on]
although I hurt I must be strong [be strong]
because inside I know, many feel this way [many feel this way]
children, don't stop dancing
believe you can fly
away.....away
children, don't stop dancing
believe you can fly
away.....away
Am I hiding in the shadows?
are we hiding in the shadows?
Lullaby
Hush my love now don't you cry

If there's one thing I hope I showed you
If there's one thing I hope I showed you
hope I showed you,
just give love to all
just give love to all
just give love to all
just give love to all
Oh my love in my arms tight
everyday you give me life
as I drift off to your world
will rest in peaceful sleep
I know there's one thing that you showed me
I know there's one thing that you showed me
that you showed me,
Just give love to all
Just give love to all
Just give love to all
Let's give love to all
