Lyrics
JAMI
Fragile human beings
Think we`re all so strong
How can one person put it right
When it`s all so wrong
Oh, Jami, if I can give to you this song
For you to step ahead in time to see
Just how angry you will be
Is there justice in this promised dream?
Oh Jami--
Will it all engulf you in its hungry flame
Because you can`t see what`s to blame.
Or will you heroically come to fame
With a story to tell of one life in hell
To this day I cannot tell --
I pray you will if you can work through the pain.
Oh Jami--
BRIDGE
You can`t escape your mind
And the lies that you`ve been sold
?Till you can live life your own way
You can`t run from what you`re told
And I`ll hope you`ll be perceptive enough
To see that you`ve been wronged.
Hope you find your peace today.
Hope you find your peace some way.
Hope you find your peace I pray.
Oh Jami--
BRIDGE
Our minds they haunt and distort the goal
Depending on what we`ve been told.
Hang on, hang on, oh please hang on
Until your mind is strong
And I wish that I could set you free
I wish I could make it right
But just hang on tight, just keep yourself in sight
Until you can decipher for yourself
What is wrong or right.
Oh Jami?
