SOILWORK
"Tongue"
(David Andersson / Soilwork / Bjorn Strid)

I've been a failure
I've been a success
Those smiles,
Were a gift from the blessed
So tell me,
Where do I go from here?
I've been brought up
With an aimless tear
On bloodstained fields,
Of broken dreams
I've lost it all
In the upward stream
This time I gotta set free
What lurks deep inside of me

Watch the power leave your,
Chapped palms
It all comes together,
Through influential tongues

The hated
See the light of day,
And here comes the sane
They're aching,
Once they were sacred
Search for forgiveness,
Forgetting their weakness
I do belong!

You're a dent in my strive for
Not feeling content
Towards the goals
We were raised to achieve
All my pride was spent
On making myself so numb
Not getting stuck
Under your thumb
Our poor judgement
Will forever, be denied

Watch the power leave your,
Chapped palms
It all comes together,
Through influential tongues
We're latching onto a new phase
That will rob us of our glorious days

The hated
See the light of day,
And here comes the sane
They're aching,
Once they were sacred
Search for forgiveness
Forgetting their weakness

That's why I'm dedicated to
How to cut things through
And I'm not one in a million
...I'm just forgetting that I ever was here...

[Solo]

The hated
See the light of day,
And here comes the sane
They're aching,
Once they were sacred
Search for forgiveness
Forgetting their weakness
I do belong
