i'm still a rebel
a rebel at heart
can't seem to lay down
to lay down my arms
i meant you no harm
the war that i wage
will take me some day
if i surrender
would you get in the way
better watch what I say
there's a civil war
brewing in my bones
i'm a long way gone
but i'm close to home
if i die today
would you take my place
on the battlefield
i need a shield of grace
if i die today
would you take my place
on the battlefield
i need a shield of grace
