I've watched you wander about
With nowhere to go but down
Or back to beginnings
I never wanted you out
To follow the broken path
Down to your ending

Guilty hands have paved the way to emptiness

So tell me, why do you run?
Why are you hiding?
The guilt will know where to find you
Lay down your guns
What are you fighting
Is my name, not forgiveness

(What are you fighting)

I see you withering now
A stubborn little broken man
So lost and alone
I wish that I could amend
The heart of my fading friend
But you would rather have it your way

Guilty hands have paved the way to emptiness

So tell me, why do you run?
Why are you hiding?
The guilt will know where to find you
Lay down your guns
What are you fighting
Is my name, not forgiveness

Won't you swallow your pride
And let me erase your stains
You run and you hide
But the darkness will have its way
I never wanted you to find your end

So why do you run?
Why are you hiding?
The guilt will know where to find you
Lay down your guns
What are you fighting
Is my name, not forgiveness

(What are you fighting)
(What are you fighting)
(What are you fighting)
