Accept My Soul

I'm falling down and I'm gonna hit the ground
Shed a tear for me
Lonely years of fighting all my fears
Never breaking free
Time comes around and people come and go
That doesn't change a thing
Still I struggle to survive
to keep the dream alive
And I wonder when it's gonna be
Forever waiting for the world to see

I never waited a day more than I had to
I never sold anything to anyone
Except my soul
Accept my soul

You wanna flee from all that you can be
There's no shame in doubt
No easy way to cancel yesterday
Without losing out
The fantasy was mine until I got the sign
There's no more black and white
Still, there's nothing that is real
except that which you can feel
And I know that you don't give a damn
Well that's your choice and it's in your hands

I never waited a day more than I had to
I never sold anything to anyone
Except my soul
Accept my soul

All I can see is these wall surrounding me
They will crumble now
Pursuing you is no easy thing to do
Sometimes I don't know how
Fantasy was mine until I got the sign
There's no more black & white
Still I know there's nothing real
except that which you can feel
And I know that you don't give a damn
Well that's your choice and it's in your hands

I never waited a day more than I had to
I never sold anything to anyone
Accept my soul
