Intro: Verse 1: Believer Your spotlight on the subject so incorrect And suggestion suggests that I'm someone you should not respect Oh you wear your facade so well Covered up in a plastic shell You're a liar to everyone around you Just don't forget Refrain: Face the honest truth You were never you I'll be defiant the lion Give them the fight that will open their eyes Hangman hooded softly swinging Don't close the coffin yet I'm alive And it's homecoming And it's homecoming Verse 2: Can you remember When there was no wrong in what I could do So young biting off way more than I could chew And then one day I grew too old And my cares were now theirs to mold Please accept this as my resignation It's time to go (Repeat Refrain) I'll be defiant the lion Give them the fight that will open their eyes Hangman hooded softly swinging Don't close the coffin yet I'm alive Interlude: Oh I'm alive Bridge: I will now bleed for what I believe in No more mistakes for them to make for me So goodbye it's my time for me Interlude: being me (Repeat Refrain) I'll be defiant the lion Give them the fight that will open their eyes Hangman hooded softly swinging Don't close the coffin yet I'm alive I'm alive I'm alive I'm alive
