My faith is my own
Popularity's the great dictator
With the masses to please
I don't want to be king for a day
If I have to give up what I can and cannot say

I will never go back to the way I was
I will never turn my back on my God
My faith is my own

My cynic's heart caged in
I shut the doors till there's nothing left to believe in
I can't see if I follow blind and
I can't speak unless I can hear my voice

Too long have I played this child's game of Simon says
My second-hand faith, I make it mine
And I will not follow blind
