I hear you, but I'm not afraid of you
I'm not afraid of you

Father, where is my gun?
Now that the war has begun
Oh, let me go it alone, I need no one
I said I need no one

But oh God, now here it comes
And it's too dark to aim this gun
Clicking now faster, faster, faster
Once again I'm on the run

And I hear you say, oh my stubborn son
Don't you said you need no one
But don't you see danger, danger, danger's
Headed to oblivion?

Followed the hunt far as I could
Through dozen weathers, petrified wood
And I took one shot in the dark
And fired the bullet silver to heart

And oh God, now here it comes
And it's too dark to aim this gun
Now faster, faster, faster
Once again I'm on the run

And I hear you say, oh my stubborn son
I know that you said you need no one
But don't you see danger, danger, danger
Headed to oblivion?
Oblivion, oblivion, oblivion, oblivion, oblivion, oblivion

Wait a second, have you come so far for it to end like this?
This is the challenge
I dare you to take a hold of that darkness from deep down in you
Get back up, what are you so afraid of?

Show your face, face to me
Show your face, face to me
Be you my friend or enemy
Show your face, face to me

I do not fear oblivion, I do not fear oblivion
Said I do not fear oblivion, oblivion, oblivion, oblivion

Father, where is my gun?
I need no one, I need no one
Said I need no one

    I'm sure it's "I hear you, but I am not afraid of you".

    I love Tilda Swinton's contribution to the album. She makes an excellent voice of hope and reason.
