A Grim Struggle Lyrics by Nightrage

Wearing a Martyr’s Crown

2009

[Verse 1]
This grim reality casts a gloom in our hearts
A grim struggle
The night of death
The day that life was cold
Pleading in the moonlight

[Verse 2]
In the fullness of time we live and learn
And we die soulless

[Pre-Chorus]
This is not a dream
This is only reality
By and by you hear my words
You can't deny morality

[Chorus 1]
(Hold on) Hold on to your dreams
Please don't let go
Of life's distress
(Hold on) Hold on to your dreams
It makes you feel more alive

[Verse 3]
Inspired by a past of pain
The only sense I have to make me feel alive

[Pre-Chorus]
This is not a dream
This is only reality
By and by you hear my words
You can't deny morality

[Chorus]
(Hold on) Hold on to your dreams
Please don't let go
Of life's distress
(Hold on) Hold on to your dreams
It makes you feel more alive

[Verse 4]
Life is hitting so hard
Without a true meaning
This is my only shallow heart

[Pre-Chorus]
This is not a dream
This is only reality
By and by you hear my words
You can't deny morality

[Chorus 1]
(Hold on) Hold on to your dreams
Please don't let go
Of life's distress
(Hold on) Hold on to your dreams
It makes you feel more alive

[Chorus 2]
Hold on
Please don't let go
Of life's distress
Hold on
It makes you feel more alive
