recorded in 2003. this is a different version from the one on their CD Blindsided. Music / Lyrics By David Cook & Jeff Shrout Seeing all my mistakes etched in stone Peeling all the layers of my soul and I feel alone You stand beside me a shadow of myself and I feel hollow And I can't swallow No it's not fair Somebody should have told me it would be this hard So give me no more promises and I'll tell you no more lies It's not supposed to be this way Preach your steady hand Reach your promised land With or without me 'cause I've fallen far away To fumble light of day and I cease to be But take comfort in the fact That I won't be hanging on your back as you go forward So say your prayers and say goodnight Whether you're wrong whether you're right I know it's hard To be who you want to be No time to sit and comprehend I've made up my mind To be a martyr for the cause And I can't pretend to mind And you stand beside me an outline of myself and I feel okay And I seem okay Oh it's not fair Nobody ever told me this would never end And it happens once again oh So go and lead your own life and leave me to mine I'm not prepared to die Preach your steady hand Reach your promised land With or without me 'cause I've fallen far away To fumble light of day and I cease to be But take comfort in the fact that I won't be hanging on your back as you go forward So say your prayers and say goodnight Whether you're wrong whether you're right I know it's hard To be who you want to be Preach your steady hand Reach your promised land With or without me 'cause I've fallen far away To fumble light of day and I cease to be But take comfort in the fact that I won't be hanging on your back as you go forward So say your prayers and say goodnight Whether you're wrong whether you're right I know it's hard To Be who you want to be yeah To be who you want to be visit Axium's Myspace page http://www.myspace.com/axium
