The time has come to tell the story.   You have to know.   I must unveil the truth about the way that we are      Oh, I'm afraid   I can't imagine what it must be like   To hear the words that I'm about to tell you: your world is a lie      Oh no I can't believe it nor deny it   Can someone tell me what I am to do now   Why was I abandoned did they leave me for dead   (And) the writing on the wall leaves me in a state of shock      Oh, who am I?   I'm just a stranger to myself   My heart is aching   I must find the truth of my life      Now I will be searching night and day   Until the day I will reveal the secret   A necessary evil but I'll do what it takes   I just have to find the one that will end the state of shock      Now I will be searching night and day   Until the day I will reveal the secret   A necessary evil but I'll do what it takes   I just have to find the one that will end the state of shock      I wave goodbye   I see you're crying   But I'll return to tell the story   So I can paper over the cracks in my soul      I can hear the voices in the night   I can't be real, it's my imagination   I know that I am worried   That I'm tired and afraid   Just a stranger in the dark living in a state of shock      Living, living in a state of shock   Living, living in a state of shock   Living, living in a state of shock      [Guitars: TN]   [Bass: TN]   [Keyboards: TN]   [Basboll: EO]
