Redeemed

Every tree has got a root And every girl forbidden fruit and got her demons And the path I chose to go, a different girl so long ago I had my reasons And shes in my head so loud, screaming "Shouldnt you be proud of what you came from? Oh, youve been crippled and youve walked on Youve been shut up and you talked, so lets talk some more" Where is the hand for me to reach? Where is the moral Ill ever teach myself? In all the black, in all the grief, I am redeemed And its ripping at my heart Because Im dodging all the darts and on a slow train And then Ill wear it til it tatters And it shatters on the floor in instant replay Oh, were all rotten and were pure And were just looking for the cure that feels like spring snow And all we have is who we are And where weve been got us this far, so let me go Where is the hand for me to reach? Where is the moral Ill never teach myself? In all the black, in all the grief, I am redeemed Where is the hand for me to reach? Where is the moral Ill never teach myself? In all the black, in all the grief through all the pain, and unbelief These are the words, that they all scream, I am redeemed
