"Never The Victim" lyrics - MEMORIAM

Never the victim
Instinct to survive
From the lowest point
In strength now shall strive
Forever a fighter
The warrior spirit
No burden of guilt
No defeat, no compromise

[Chorus:]
I shall arise
Stronger than before

This storm inside
Weathered, will subside
From the chains that hold
As my heart grows cold
Your shame, your crime
Cannot decrease in time
No emotion, love now dies
Fire gone within your eyes

[Chorus:]
I shall arise
Wiser than before

[Bridge:]
Filled with rage
Fear engaged
All the lies
No disguise

[Outro:]
Forget the future and the past
Live for today, nothing lasts
All that once was certain now is gone
With pride and courage carry on
The hopes and dreams we once made
Lay in ruins now decayed
Through this suffering and pain
I shall learn to live again
