Lyrics

"I need you"

- Simple words - But words which had never be heard By the soul stoned to death But still living

And So he froze where he stood And he looked to the ground And he cried, he cried

Ride our minds, if you must But there's always a line you don't cross Time is short, don't be cruel Oh, you don't know the power In what you're saying

And So he froze where he stood And he looked to the ground And he cried, he cried

People where I come from They survive without feelings or blood I never could... Was stoned to death But I'm still living

So he froze where he stood And he looked to the ground And he cried, he cried

So he froze where he stood And he looked, and he looked to the ground And he cried, he cried
