Bonus track on withdrawn 'Life Changes' German CD5. 

How long can this go on
How long can we see this wrong
And sing the same old song 

There's a desert all round me
And the valley of apathy
Far as I could see 

I was on the outside
Always looking in
Now I stand
I can't turn and face away 

Here I will stay on my own
I will pray all alone
On this stage in the Heartland 

When the color of your skin
decides where you begin
Then that's what lies within 

So if you walk alone
While others cast a stone
Stay on your own 

The changing of the new tide
Something you can't hide
Take your stand
This truth will fade away 

Here I will stay on my own
I will pray all alone
On this stage in the Heartland, yeah 

I was on the outside
Always looking in
Now I stand
I can't turn and face away 

Here I will stay on my own
I will pray all alone
On this stage in the Heartland 

Here I will stay
On my own
I will pray
All alone
On this stage
In the Heartland
The Heartland 

Here I will stay
On my own
I will pray
I ain't never going home
Alone on the stage
In the Heartland
