lyrics

Frank J. Miles

no one knows who you are
tell me how deep is the scar
are you ahead in the game?
are you a proper man?
no one stays in the fight
till we know what is right
are you lost in the dark
are you a fish or shark?

they never, never told you what to do
never, never, made it through to you
never, never made you feel good neither were you understood
they never showed you how to build a tribe
never showed you how to pick a fight
never showed you how to see the light
how to keep fighting for what’s right

Frank J. Miles

you can hear people scream
against the stream for the team
let’s find out who we are
are we proper men?
be a burning laser
carry on, hellraiser
winners got to be stark
can’t get lost in the dark

they never, never told you what to do
never, never, made it through to you
never, never made you feel good neither were you understood
they never showed you how to build a tribe
never showed you how to pick a fight
never showed you how to see the light
how to keep fighting for what’s right
