Resurrection
by John Michael Ray

Why me, why now
What have I done to win your heart
Why you, why us
Why have you chosen this new start

I see the wheels turning
In your shattered little mind
I want so much to think
That you’ve returned my love in kind
I’ve heard the brand new, same old
Demands I’ve heard before
You’ve been once bitten, twice shy
And you want to blame me more

Why this, why that
What’s made your essence start to slide
Why here, why there
Where do you want to be when worlds collide

How can you just sit there
Waiting, letting yourself die
The strength comes from within
The outside is just a lie
To say that you were wronged
And that you never will forget
Is selling us both short
You’ll never be repaid that debt

Get up, and fight with me some more
Get up, it’s rotten to the core
Get up, it’s just settling a score
Get up, and fight with me some more

You’re deaf, you’re blind
You’re living in denial
What the hell is wrong with you
You’re up, you’re down
You’re living in between
What the hell you going through
You’re hot, you’re cold
Your heat brings on a chill
What the hell will freezing do
You’re in, you’re out
You’re walking on the edge
Why the hell you split in two

Ah yes, I see
An opportunity, bring up the past
Oh my, so close
Beginnings, endings come and go so fast

I’ve seen you drowning in your sorrow
And I’ve listened while you’ve cried
Counseled you so sweetly
That you’re still the same inside
Nothing I can say
Will resurrect that inner child
Nothing I can do
Will resurrect that girl gone wild

Get up, and fight with me some more
Get up, it’s rotten to the core
Get up, it’s just settling a score
Get up, and fight with me some more

You’re deaf, you’re blind
You’re living in denial
What the hell is wrong with you
You’re up, you’re down
You’re living in between
What the hell you going through
You’re hot, you’re cold
Your heat brings on a chill
What the hell will freezing do
You’re in, you’re out
You’re walking on the edge
Why the hell you split in two
