Selling The Drama

and to love: a god

and to fear: a flame

and to burn a crowd that has a name



and to right or wrong

and to weak or strong

it is known, just scrape it from the wall



I've willed, I've walked, I've read

I've talked, I know, I know,

I've been there before



hey, now we won't be raped

hey, now we won't be scarred like that

hey, now we won't be raped

hey, now we won't be scarred like that



it's the sun that burns

it's the wheel that turns

it's the way we sing that makes 'em dream



and to christ: a cross

and to me: a chair

I will sit and earn the ransom

from up here



I've willed, I've walked, I've read

I've talked, I know, I know,

I've been here before



hey, now we won't be raped

hey, now we won't be scarred like that

hey, now we won't be raped

hey, now we won't be scarred like that



and to love: a god

and to fear: a flame

and to burn a love that has a name



I've willed, I've walked, I've read

I've talked, I know, I know,

I've been here before



hey, now we won't be raped

hey, now we won't be scarred like that

hey, now we won't be raped

hey, now we won't be scarred like that..
