Song Description
'Salvation' is about how I question myself while going through the motions of my every day routine; how sometimes I feel like my strength and spirit are slipping away. And when this happens, can I maintain my ability to do the right thing ... do I have the strength to forgive others when forgiveness seems meaningless?

Lyrics
It's 8 o'clock on Monday morning
This week has come without a warning
As I rush around in vain
Too many thoughts are in my brain
I feel an emptiness inside me
My soul is caged but wants to break free
Is salvation somewhere near
Or am I locked inside my fears
I am trying to make things right
I won't give up on the fight toward salvation
I am searching for some youth
Will the words I speak be truth in reparation
Can I turn the other cheek
When forgiveness seems so weak, I need salvation
I need the strength to persevere
And I need you here
There's an emotional collision
Caused by this constant indecision
Within this jaded world of mine
Can I find something divine
I want to lose my disillusions
Avoid the conflict of confusion
I need some solace in my heart
So my hopes won't fall apart
I am trying to make things right
I won't give up on the fight toward salvation
I am searching for some youth
Will the words I speak be truth in reparation
Can I turn the other cheek
When forgiveness seems so weak, I need salvation
I need the strength to persevere
And I need you here
