As I raise my head to broadcast my objection
+
As your latest triumph draws the final straw
+
Who died and lifted you up to perfection?
+
And what silenced me is written into law.
+
I can't believe where circumstance has thrown me
And I turn my head away
+
If I look I'm not sure that I could face you.
+
Not again. Not today. Not today.
+
If hatred makes a play on me tomorrow
And forgiveness takes a back seat to revenge
+
There's a hurt down deep that has not been corrected
+
There's a voice in me that says you will not win.
+
And if I ignore the voice inside,
Raise a half glass to my home.
+
But it's there that I am most afraid,
+
And forgetting doesn't hold.
+
It doesn't hold. Now I don't believe and I never did
That two wrongs make a right.
+
If the world were filled with the likes of you
+
Then I'm putting up a fight. Putting up a fight.
+
Putting up a fight. Make it right. Make it right.
+
Now love cannot be called into question.
Forgiveness is the only hope I hold.
+
And love... love will be my strongest weapon.
+
I do believe that I am not alone.
+
For this fear will not destroy me.
And the tears that have been shed
+
It's knowing now where I am weakest
+
And the voice in my head. In my head.
+
Then I raise my voice up higher
And I look you in the eye
+
And I offer love with one condition.
+
With conviction, tell me why.
+
Tell me why.
+
Tell me why.
+
Look me in the eye.
+
Tell me why.
+
