Isolation 99

Every time I close my eyes
I hide behind the blackened lies
That follow me
Throughout my history

The lives I've touched, the things I've done
The things I know will never come
Get washed away
In my happiness

And, oh
When you feel stranded
Don't take for granted
This thing called life
And, oh
When you feel stranded
Don't take for granted
This thing called life

Moving on was hard to do
To leave the things that I once knew
Childhood is the one thing
That won't come back to me

How can I sit idly by
Watching all these hours denied?
My name is all I have
For an offering

And, oh
When you feel stranded
Don't take for granted
This thing called life
And, oh
When you feel stranded
Don't take for granted
This thing called life

Built up walls that crumbled down
People marched and stood their ground
I saw it happen
It was part of me

And, oh
When you feel stranded
Don't take for granted
This thing called life
And, oh
When you feel stranded
Don't take for granted
This thing called life

(Oh) don't take for granted
(Oh) don't take for granted
(Oh) don't take for granted
(Oh) don't take for granted
(Oh) don't take for granted
(Oh) don't take for granted
(Oh) don't take for granted
(Oh) don't take for granted
