so stop and take it all in slowly
'cause this short glimpse is not the only 
chance that you will have to see
all the ways that i can prove myself as worthy
to be the one and only true sure thing
sure thing

i can't believe i lent(?) my hand to help destroy and helpless man
maybe it's a long shot now, but still i say
should not survive this fall then i pray if i pray at all
that i could catch my breath and come away unscathed
away unscathed

i once believed you were my savior 
but now you're nothing but a traitor
and still i'll wait for your return 
i get the feeling i have waited 
a whole lifetime in vain
a lot to lose with nothing to gain

i can't believe i lent(?) my hand to help destroy and helpless man
maybe it's a long shot now, but still i say
should not survive this fall then i pray if i pray at all
that i could catch my breath and come away unscathed
away unscathed
