Lyrics

Confronting one?s own supremacy is a difficult situation
Happiness is not complacency or emotional masturbation
Hold it to the prism; truth and pain live so close together
Emotional masochism, fighting intentionally for our deeper pleasure

Raking joy down the cheek of The Raging Bull

I wish I?d gotten to know The Raging Bull

Controlling lives in silence behind your charasmatic eyes
Will not bring control to those thoughts that you despise inside your mind
Forcing back the tears only builds the violent impact of these hidden fears

Raking joy down the cheek of The Raging Bull

I wish I?d gotten to know The Raging Bull

I can see the cracks splitting in your walls
If you tell me your secrets I won?t let you fall
