Give me air to breathe
And I'll hold my breath
Give me a voice to speak
and I'll Scream my lungs out
Silenced by your words
but I'll take refuge in myself
If this is the way we're supposed to live
I won't do it no more
If this is the way we're supposed to cope
Without faith I close my eyes in hope
Of something better
I was forged in silence
And your best atempt to change
To change, to change me
will never get through
now give me air to breathe
And I'll hold my breath
Give me a voice to speak
and I'll Scream my lungs out
If this is the way we're supposed to live
I won't do it no more
If this is the way we're supposed to cope
Without faith I close my eyes in hope
A lifelong secret
witch I kept with tolerance
A boy shut out from the world
The light of day never saw its way
Through the very heart of his soul
And I'll hold my breath
Give me a voice to speak
and I'll Scream my lungs out
Silenced by your words
but I'll take refuge in myself
If this is the way we're supposed to live
I won't do it no more
If this is the way we're supposed to cope
Without faith I close my eyes in hope
Of something better
I was forged in silence
And your best atempt to change
To change, to change me
will never get through
now give me air to breathe
And I'll hold my breath
Give me a voice to speak
and I'll Scream my lungs out
If this is the way we're supposed to live
I won't do it no more
If this is the way we're supposed to cope
Without faith I close my eyes in hope
A lifelong secret
witch I kept with tolerance
A boy shut out from the world
The light of day never saw its way
Through the very heart of his soul
