Hail the guitar, all tuned down In a power circle, obey the crowd All ride a wave, crash right in Lovers and fighters, adrenaline
The singer spits, our hearts all rise Energy is visible, we all crush tight All washed away, tsunami wave Fragile human, all the same
And now, I face the sound When all around is burning I'm like Hermes, drifting down
I am the saint, your path into the light I am the knife that cuts right through your life I have found the path immortalized I am the saint, the path into the light
Caught in a trap, the systems are down Communication's broken, I feel underground Weight of the storm, in sound, we all drown You'll never understand what drives us all on
And now, I face the sound And all around is burning I'm like Hermes, drifting down, down, down, down
I am the saint, your path, the way, the light I am the knife that cuts right through your life I have found the path immortalized I am the saint, your path, the way, the light
I am the saint, your path into the light I am the knife that cuts right through your life I have found the path immortalized I am the saint, your path, the way, the light
You are the sun, I am the flame You are the blood, I am the same We are the love that rises again They are the snake that bites on your veins
(We are not chained to the wheel)
You are the tear, I have no fear You are so strange, I feel the same Sorcerous mind, we ride again
(We are not chained to the wheel, to the wheel)
It's the way that you feel It's the truth in your eye You got wings upon your back and you can fly
It's the way that you feel It's the truth in your eye 'Cause you're up against the world and still you rise And still you rise
You are alive and high in my dreams You are the stars that mystify me And you are the wolf that frightens the thief And you are the voice that they disbelieve
(We are not chained to the wheel) And you are the spark that sets us all free (We are not chained to the wheel, to the wheel)
It's the way that you feel It's the truth in your eye You got wings upon your back and you can fly
It's the way that you feel It's the truth in your eye 'Cause you're up against the world and still you rise And still you rise
Whoa, baby It's the way that you feel It's the truth in your eye You got wings upon your back and you can fly
It's the way that you feel It's the truth in your eye 'Cause you're up against the world and still you rise And still you rise Still you rise Still you rise

They walk behind me, oh lord They walk Behind me Behind me, oh lord
