The Burning

There's a place that I come from
Where the disenchanted live alone
And it rains all day and the nights are cold
Would you dare to wish for something more

I have turned laughter to tears, punched my way to get here
Stole the fruit, bruised the skin from the heart of the innocent
Still you forgive

Where would I be without you
I couldn't live without you
You are the reason that I breathe

I won't look down, my еyes are fixed ahеad now
No words of pain will pass between my lips
A thousand miles starts with a single footstep
No regrets, it's my time, can't forget my lifeline
As for me I'll make my peace on earth

Church bells ring, sound like a song
Of a time we knew long and gone
I'll break away in the dead of night
And all that I knew, I'll sever that line

There is a riot inside, torn between truth and my pride
Will I have to learn to compromise

I won't look down, my eyes are fixed ahead now
No words of pain will pass between my lips
A thousand miles starts with a single footstep
No regrets, it's my time, can't forget my lifeline
As for me i'll make my peace on earth

Don't look back or for revenge
To the point where you descend
Stand at your post while the weak pass by
Show the world how a man should be

I won't look down, my eyes are fixed ahead now
No words of pain will pass between my lips
A thousand miles starts with a single footstep
No regrets, it's my time, can't forget my lifeline
As for me I'll make my peace on earth
