Lyrics This Is A Standoff

This Is A Standoff

Climb The Ladder

I guess you're through forgiving me it's written on your face

Forgetting all transparency we lost while keeping pace

It's time I faced another one it's time I faced myself

It's time to please consider blaming me and no one else

And I don't remember when all our gifts became a loan

This rat race has destroyed us so we never can go home

Where were these signs that we don't read

We pushed past blindly to succeed

Oh where, oh where's your conscience gone?

Forgiveness registers no more

Compassions' gone and closed the door

I lost integrity, I left it right in front of me

Some say you don't belong to me some told me you need space

Forgetting all the problems made me love you the same way

It's time I faced another one this desperate man alone

But nothing pushed them off the edge my reference told me so

And I don't remember when all our gifts became a loan

This rat race has destroyed us so we never can go home

And we scream for forgiveness but deaf ears won't hear a sound

It's the same people you stepped on going up and coming down

Where were these signs that we don't read

We pushed past blindly to succeed

Oh where, oh where's your conscience gone?

Forgiveness registers no more

Compassions' gone and closed the door

I lost integrity, I left it right in front of me
