One Voice

Echolyn · Other Songs - Echolyn

Listen well, life's too short to make excuses

Take the chance, expose yourself to find your wrong

You are the reason why denial breeds frustration

You've let your dreams slip away



First answer to yourself, then decide for others

If the dream in your possession has time enough

Or room for those who can't decide

Which way the balance swings

Their faith all alone in a crowd



Just like Vincent bled upon canvas

Feelings he could not explain

So does my heart weep in anger

For we are only human, one voice against the world



Hours and hours you'd spend staring at the wall

Sometimes you'd laugh till you'd cry

Feelings you can't deny, locked inside

It's suicide killing yourself from within



Open your eyes to a world with no horizons

No chains to bind your movement, your will is free to roam

So why confine your soul in a world filled with illusions

Of strangled and beaten ideas



Just like Vincent bled upon canvas

Feelings he could not explain

So does my heart weep in anger

For we are only human, one voice against the world



One voice heard above the distant sigh of humanity

You have the chance to hear his word

...one voice
