Joy Lyrics

Have I no control? 

Is my soul not mine? 

Am I not just man? 

Just to be defined

Never to be ruled

Nor held to yeild

Not Heaven or Hell 

Just the land between

Am I not man? 

Is my heart not weak? 

No law, no God, no hate, no pity, no pain, just me. 

Comprehend how to learn

Some of us die just to choose our way

Never to be ruled

Nor held to yeild

Nor Heaven nor Hell

Just the land between

And am I not man? 

So why do I love when I still feel pain? 

When does it end, when is my work done? 

Why do I love and why do feel that I carry a sword through a battle field?

So why do I love when I still feel pain? 

When does it end, when is my work done? 

Why do I fight and why do feel that I carry a sword through a battle field?

Like a path to Heaven or a road to Hell

Our choices are our own consequence is mine

We are the kings of wisdom the fools as well

We are the Gods to many, we are humbled man

We will build great works just to break them down

We'll make our rules so we never fail

So why do I love when I still feel pain? 

When does it end, when is my work done? 

Why do I love and why do feel that I carry a sword through a battle field?

So why do I love when I still feel pain? 

When does it end, when is my work done? 

Why do I fight and why do feel that I carry a sword, that I carry a sword through a battle field?
