stand (at the burning tree)

i come to my senses

and i feel like

i've just been born

gonna' tear down

the fences

and my feet have been shackled

and torn

and i face my resistance

and i stake my flag

in the ground

they will come in many colors

in the silence

breakin' me down

i'm ten miles away

and i won't

be afraid

i've been locked in this dream

far too long

and i lie awake

and the hurt

breaks my fall

all alone

in this world

with my symphony

i stand

stand at the

burning tree

i stand

oh lord

won't you justify me?

too long is my sentence

i can't let myself

slowly drown

there's a sign

in the skyline

i won't let this curse

take me down

i have lived

with the shaman

tried to get myself company

and i walk

with the angels

when they come

they don't lie to me

i'm ten miles away

and i won't

be afraid

i've been locked in this dream

far too long

and i lie awake

and the hurt

breaks my fall

all alone

in this world

with my symphony

i stand

stand at the

burning tree

i stand

oh lord

won't you justify me?

i'm ten miles away

and i won't

be afraid

i've been locked in this dream

far too long

and i lie awake

and the hurt

breaks my fall

all alone

in this world

with my symphony

i stand

stand at the

burning tree

i stand

oh lord

won't you justify me?
