11th Hour

Waiting on the call one day, waiting to be led astray

Waiting for the promise, for the dream to come true

(Like sheep to the shepherd)

Waiting to believe the claims, waiting but it's all the same

Waiting for a signal, for a sign to come through

(Outcast like the lepers)

All alone, on the edge of losing hope

Exactly where they want you

Don't pledge your life, don't hold your breath

Don't sacrifice it all until there's nothing left

Sacrifice

Waiting for the rain to cleanse

Praying that this pain will end

Thanks for nothing, I knew I could count on you

Inconsequential

As another nightmare ends, brave enough to dream again

Believe in something that might not come true

Why hold on when the cost of letting go

Is less than blind devotion?

Until there's nothing left at all

Don't sacrifice it all

Unfulfilled prophecies rust

Envy, greed, pride, and lust

Tell me where do you place your trust?

So believe what you must

Can't sit still

How can you fill a void that will not heal

A gaping wound that cannot be sealed

As you feel the sting of shame and guilt
