lyrics

I woke up this morning
To wish my life away
I left my bedroom to make sure she was okay
He yelled at me
They never quite understood
That I was just searching for the common good

My intention are never led astray
My minds creations are what make you stay

I need you to trust me
You need sanctuary
I will soldier on
There's nothing wrong with me
I am the common good

They put me away
Under lock and key
They taught me a lesson
They all failed to see
Guilty til proven innocent
Seems that's the way to be
The wolf will go free
I'll stay the tamed sheep

My intention are never led astray
My minds creations are what make you stay

I need you to trust me
You need sanctuary
I will soldier on
There's nothing wrong with me
I am the common good

My intention are never led astray
My minds creations are what make you stay

I need you to trust me
You need sanctuary
I will soldier on
There's nothing wrong with me
I am the common good

I need you to trust me
You need sanctuary
I will soldier on
There's nothing wrong with me
I am the common good
