Mark My Word

Another day of nine to five and I'm feelin down
My dreams have faded, I'm a prisoner in this town
I think about the past and what might have been
But fightin all the pain and pressure, it's tough to win
From where I've been, it's tough to win

The bell is ringin, the box is full they all want some
Can you hold on a little longer, your time will come
Oh I can see it now the evil that too much brings
But it hides itself in greed and lust for material things
In greed and lust for material things

And no one's gonna take away my song from me
They can take my job, but they can't take away my dignity
I've got my guitar, I've got my voice, I will be heard
And someday soon I won't look back you can mark my word
I will be heard

Sometime's it feels like the bottom's comin, there is no hope
You try and try to find the answer, you just can't cope
Well just keep your faith and soon the light it will appear
and it's then when you realize it was always near
Yeah you realize, it was always near
