The Pass
Proud swagger out of the schoolyardWaiting for the world's applauseRebel without a conscienceMartyr without a cause
Static on your frequencyElectrical storm in your veinsRaging at unreachable gloryStraining at invisible chains
And now you're trembling on a rocky ledgeStaring down into a heartless seaCan't face life on a razor's edgeNothing's what you thought it would be
All of us get lost in the darknessDreamers learn to steer by the starsAll of us do time in the gutterDreamers turn to look at the starsTurn around and turn around and turn aroundTurn around and walk the razor's edgeDon't turn your backAnd slam the door on me
It's not as if this barricadeBlocks the only roadIt's not as if you're all aloneIn wanting to explode
Someone set a bad exampleMade surrender seem all rightThe act of a noble warriorWho lost the will to fight
And now you're trembling on a rocky ledgeStaring down into a heartless seaDone with life on a razor's edgeNothing's what you thought it would be
No hero in your tragedyNo daring in your escapeNo salutes for your surrenderNothing noble in your fateChrist, what have you done?
