Where houses are black under the sun Strangers pass on streets with strange names All I can think is how soon they have come I think about what you told me And I was about to join in Defy only, if you have a way to resist the lies Decline only, if you have the intention of taking this advice Apply only, if you're not afraid to see your spirit die Retreat only, if you dare not hear yourself say goodbye Look at me now, they have cut my hair It's a long way back They kicked me down and I could not rise I will never arrive Look at me now, they have cut my hair It's a long way back They kicked me down and I could not rise I will never arrive Defy only, if you have a way to resist the lies Decline only, if you have the intention of taking this advice Look at me now, they have cut my hair It's a long way back They kicked me down and I could not rise I will never arrive
