My Rosary
by Phinehas

Album: Dark Flag

Bridge
Is there a power without or within
Hope isn't grown, hope is awakened
The threat of law can't outweigh conviction
Hope isn't grown, hope is awakened

Verse 1
Where are you now?
Are you present or an accident; my rosary
Where are you now?
Will my faith meet sight or bayonet? My rosary

Verse 2
My first free choice was lying to the state
Given context to what lies past the gate
The fog surrounding my camp began to disperse
We took our chance for the fence but I wasn't first

Chorus
I've found that running away isn't the same as being free
I'm paralyzed in my sleep
Running away isn't the same as being free
You were my compass; my rosary

Post-Chorus
(hope is awakened)
Hope isn't grown; hope is awakened
Hope isn't grown; hope is awakened

Verse 2
I slipped on ice and watched your hands reach out
Shaking as coils sent current throughout
Grounding the burnt of what should have been my fate
Opening the wires sending fire through your veins
Like a bridge, I crawled over you to outside
My first breath of freedom was your last breath of life

Chorus
I've found that running away isn't the same as being free
I'm paralyzed in my sleep
Running away isn't the same as being free
You were my compass; my rosary

Bridge
Is there a power without or within
Hope isn't grown, hope is awakened
The threat of law can outweigh conviction
Hope isn't grown, hope is awakened

Ending
Where are you now? (hope isn't grown)
Are you present? (hope is awakened)
Where are you now? (hope isn't grown)
Are you an accident? (hope is awakened)
