GALLOWS END

- Not Your Own Lyrics

At the edge of reason there’s no limit to ones mind
Born out of hope, the lie turned treason into gold
The man with the power says the future is for all
While his other hand gives the command
To start a bloody war

Fight! Why can't you see?
Trapped under the iron fist
Controlling you and me
You’re not your own

Inside the holy temple miracles are told
Born under a lucky star, some people have it all
But some will always use you
"A tenth is all I ask"
And in return you’ll be the one who will lead the holy
war

Pray! Why can't you see?
Trapped under the iron fist
Controlling you and me
You’re not your own

Chorus:
As far as you can see this dream is a reality
But your life is in your hands
This dream will not set you free

Out in the cold and the dark, I turn my back on you
Lost in the cold and the dark, I turn my back on you

Your life’s returning you can feel it every day
No more lies, no more deceit, you are your own
There are things in life you’ve never seen
It’s a sinners paradise
No more hate, no more guilt, you are your own

Fight! Why can't you see?
Trapped under the iron fist
Controlling you and me
You’re not your own

Repeat Chorus
