Here’s a thought for every man 
Who tries to understand what’s in his hands 
(what’s in his hands)
He walks along the open road of Love & Life 
surviving if he can 
(surviving if he can)

Bound with all the weight of all the words he tried to say 
Chained to all the places that he never wished to say 
Bound with all the weight of all the words he tried to say 
As he faced the sun he cast no shadow 

As they took his soul they stole his pride
As they took his soul they stole his pride
As they took his soul they stole his pride
As he faced the sun he cast no shadow 

Here’s a thought for every man 
Who tries to understand what’s in his hands
(what’s in your hands)
’Cause as you walk along the open road of Love & Life 
survive if you can
(but only if you can)

Bound with all the weight of all the words I tried to say 
Chained to all the places I must never gonna stay 
Bound with all the weight of all the words I tried to say 
As I faced the sun I cast no shadow

You can take my soul, don’t take my pride
When you take my soul don’t take my pride
When you take my soul don’t take my pride

And as we face the sun we cast no shadow 
And as we face the sun we cast no shadow 
And as we face the sun we cast no shadow
