Shell Of A Fighter Lyrics

Shell Of A Fighter lyrics

I dream of changes.

I change my dreams.

I feel so restless,

sometimes I get so mean.



why should I bother

finding the will,

when every movement I make

just seems like I'm standing still?



[chorus:]

the shell of a fighter,

the shell of a man,

the weight of a lifetime -

waiting for your healing hands.



and still I rise,

and still I dream,

and still I feel,

and I wait.



[chorus 1 repeat]



[chorus 2:]

why don't you hold me

when I need you to?

why don't you touch me

when I reach for you?



[chorus 3:]

why don't you hurt for me

like I do for you?

why don't you dream of me -

dream like I'm dreaming of you?



[chorus 1 x2]



the shell of a fighter



and still I rise,

and still I dream,

and still I feel,

and I wait.



the shell of a fighter
