What if I were to disobey
Give you back the power
Would I be punished like a child

And left on my own
Would you think me ungrateful
And send me away

If I couldn't make you happy

(4x)

As empty handed leaving
As I was when I came
Tiptoeing through the rubble

And running through the flames

What if I were to disobey

Give you back the power
Would you be the one to turn your back
And cast the first stone

Would you think me a coward
Though I be the hero
And come home a hero


I gave you back your power
I gave you back your glory

Well really I hadn't noticed
Until I had the power to give it all back
Until I felt the glory

When the buildings collapsed (2x)

Cause empty handed leaving

As I was when I came
Tiptoeing through the rubbel
And running through the flames (Refrain 4x)


I gave you back your power
I gave you back your glory

Well really I hadn't noticed
Until I had the power to give it all back
Until I felt the glory

When the buildings collapsed (2x)

I gave you back your power

I gave you back your glory (4x)
