Speaking for myself

Let me be the one to tell you

Right to your face

Speaking for myself

Let me be the one

To lead you out of this place

Let me be the water boilin'

In a pot of yesterdays

Get high, start to cry

One day you're gonna say


Speaking for yourself

Found out that you played a bigger part

Than you knew

Speaking for yourself

Suddenly you found out there was more in you

Speakin' like a neon burnin' soldier 

Fightin' for a righteous soul

Get high, start to cry

But one day I know you'll know


It's your time, It's your turn

It's your life, It's your world


Speaking for ourselves

We stood up to the night

Crashing down on our head

Speaking for ourselves

We stood up to the lies 

Spoken by the living dead

Stood up to the violence

Turning heroes into killers

Turning lovers into a widow's child

Get high, start to cry

One day you'll realize


It's your time, It's your turn

It's your life, It's your world


Speaking for myself

Let me be the one to tell you

Right to your face

Speaking for myself

Let me be the one

To take you out of this place

And I'm speaking for myself
