The Neal Morse Band
Fighting with Destiny
This way is dangerous
This ain't no diamond lane
Ain't no sofa school
Got no shoulder
There is the Mount of Pain
There is the Cliff of Lust
And in between there's shame
Like a boulder
You're fighting with destiny
You never heard the call
You'll never make the grade
You'll just get colder, colder, colder
I'm on the razor's edge
Next to the mouth of Hell
As I close my eyes
To refocus
You're fighting with destiny
You never heard the call
You'll never make the grade
You'll just get older
God has forgotten you
If He exists at all
There's no brighter day
It just gets colder, colder, colder
Colder, colder, colder, colder
In memory of every brother
No one knows your name
You will die like all the others
And you're the ones to blame
[Organ solo]
You're fighting with destiny
You never heard the call
You'll never make the grade
You'll just get older
God has forgotten you
If He exists at all
There's no brighter day
It just gets colder, colder, colder
Colder, colder, colder, colder
In memory of every brother
No one knows your name
You will die like all the others
And you're the ones to blame
You'd best get back into derision
Loneliness and pain
Hate your father, it's your decision
Seek to seal the stain
[Instrumental]
