Defiant!

Take me instead, I'll stand in the middle

A martyr once said, hoping to deliver us

Take me instead, I'll stand in the middle

When the river runs red, hoping for deliverance

Defiant, I'll become the shelter 

In the hope that my death 

Gives more before oblivion

I'm hoping that the river runs dry yet

I am all of who I am

Wear the face of all I know I am

I am all of who I am

I the tested, I the broken stand

Take me instead, I'll stand unforgiven

When the river runs red

Hoping this delivers us

Defiant, I'll become the shelter 

In the hope that my death 

Gives more before oblivion

Hoping that the river runs dry yet

I am all of who I am

Wear the face of all I know I am

I am all of who I am

I the tested, I the broken stand

...On the inside

Born a slave here in denial

I am free now, I am just

Holding my own sacred line

I will keep on following

For the one who bears the eyes 

I conceived mine offered up 

I will brace, bleed and defy 

The moment that the river runs

I am all of who I am

Wear the face of all I know I am

Both the liar and the honest man

I the tested, I the broken stand

I'm hoping to deliver us

Hoping to deliver us

Hoping that the river runs dry

Hoping that the river runs dry

Hoping that the river runs dry
