Are we at our end?

Have we met our match?

The bleeding's getting worse,

It's more than just a scratch.

 

We fight for honor,

To save the ones we love.

You don't see it falling,

The death from above.

I want to win this,

To prove that I'm worthwhile.

I'd give anything,

Just to see you smile.

 

I've gotta go on...

I have to right the wrong!

 

Are we at our end?
Have we met our match?
The bleeding's getting worse,
It's more than just a scratch.

 

Here we go again,

Watch the truth unfold.

I can't fight anymore,

My story dies untold.

 

They chase me down,

Treat me like a dog.

They don't think I can see them

Through all this blinding fog.

They want to get me,

Put a target on my head.

If only they could see my pain

And the tears that I have shed.

 

I've gotta go on...

I have to right the wrong!

 

They're all long gone...

Could they hear my song?

I've gotta go on...

I have to right the wrong!

 

Are we at our end?
Have we met our match?
The bleeding's getting worse,
It's more than just a scratch.

 

Here we go again,
Watch the truth unfold.
I can't fight anymore,
My story dies untold.
