lyrics

Love will never conquer
As long as shame stands in the way
My love goes out to those
Who are cut deep and bleeding out
What hopelessness brought you there
The same as mine I fear
Lost searching for a purpose
Filled endlessly with care
Never to be returned
If only kindness could exist
Without the fear of failure
If only it would rain
And wash away the pain
That love will never conquer
As long as shame stands in the way
The death of a father
The rejection of a lover
I’m crying out for a savior
That I won’t die in vain
A tender heart thrown and shattered
Like a monster slain
Beaten, torn and battered
Never to feel the same
My heart bleeds for you
My heart a blackened blue
It is sad but it is true
I believe it’s safe to say
That love will never conquer
As long as shame stands in the way
