lyrics

I was searching for freedom, freedom
Always trying to right the wrongs
The reflections of reflections
Of a point in history
It's just you and me, oh
I was given a new life, new life
For a moment in time, I find
Just reflections of reflections
Of a point in history
It's a tragedy, oh

Will you remember my name
Like the rising sun?
I've been waiting for you
And all that you've become
Look me straight in the eyes over the top of a gun
It's already begun, yeah
You better beg for forgiveness and pray that's all you've done
How you feeling now? Is it still just a bit of fun?
Apocalyptic nation divided under one
It's already begun

But we're all calling out
Is anyone out there?
If someone's listening
Then show me you care
There's gotta be more than this
There's gotta be more to me than this

Will you remember my name
Like the rising sun?
Say you can't handle the pain
When it's already begun
And we could run away
But there's nowhere to turn, there's nowhere to turn, oh
And I was fighting for love
But things ain't what they used to be
It once was both of us
Now it's just you and me
It's time to close the book on this tragedy
It's a tragedy

You can always turn to me when the light falls on your face
It's not a test of loyalty, it's a test of faith
Unlucky for you, it's the right time, right place
And you should be afraid

But we're all calling out
Is anyone out there?
If someone's listening
Then show me you care
There's gotta be more than this
There's gotta be more to me than this

Will you remember my name
Like the rising sun?
Say you can't handle the pain
When it's already begun
And we could run away
But there's nowhere to turn, there's nowhere to turn, oh
And I was fighting for love
But things ain't what they used to be
It once was both of us
Now it's just you and me
It's time to close the book on this tragedy
It's a travesty

I was searching for freedom, freedom
Always trying to right the wrongs
The reflections of reflections
Of a point in history
It's just you and me, oh
I was given a new life, new life
For a moment in time, I find
Just reflections of reflections
Of a point in history
It's a tragedy, oh (x2)

I was searching for freedom, freedom
Always trying to right the wrongs
The reflections of reflections
Of a point in history
It's a tragedy, oh


Will you remember my name
Like the rising sun?
Oh, we can run away but there's nowhere to turn
There's nowhere to turn
Will you remember my name
Like the rising sun?
Say you can't handle the pain
It's a tragedy
It's a tragedy
It's a tragedy
It's a tragedy
