Respected

Here in the dark, the shadows, they haunt me
Here in the shade, oh the bright lights, they blind me
Yesterday is gone, time for moving on
Here's a brand new start, gonna base it on my heart
It's another day, I've got to find a better way
Won't you help me?
Failing that
If you have to go
It's all up to me, I know
I just wanna change my world
But from the inside
I just wanna live my life
And make this place, make this time
For all our lives to be
Respected
Here in the cold, light of day, this vision
Paints a different world, a world of the heart
And I'd like to live there
I've been on the run, from all the people I've become
I want to shed this skin, and start it all again
I want to draw a line, in the sand for one last time
Will you help me?
Failing that
If you have to go
It's all up to me I know
I just wanna change my world
But from the inside
I just wanna live my life
With some hope, and to do what's right
I just wanna change this world
And make this place, make this time
For all our lives to be
Respected
