Raise the gates

I had a california dream
And than I had california turn on me
If you believe in that
If you believe in that
I found truth in the aftermath
And got everything that every really mattered back
If you believe in that
If you believe in that

And I won't be compromised
I know how to survive the worst
Right to the end

I will never ever go away
And I told myself to run the other way
If you believe in that
If you believe in that
Because I've had a hundred thousand deaths
I don't care if I have hundred thousand left
If you believe in that
If you believe in that

Push me in the fire
Let the flames grab hold of me
I'm not tired
Of Defending my beliefs
There are demons all around me
Who can't take my desire
This is hell and I'm not afraid
Raise the gates and push me in the fire

And I found that perfect love
But she could never understand where I was coming from
If you believe in that
If you believe in that

I won't be used again
I try now to defend myself
My fantasy world

I've seen another picture of you
And it walks with me down another avenue
If you believe in that
If you believe in that

Push me in the fire
Let the flames grab hold of me
I'm not tired
Of Defending my beliefs
There are demons all around me
Who can't take my desire
This is hell and I'm not afraid
Raise the gates and push me in the fire

Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey

Push me in the fire
Let the flames grab hold of me
I'm not tired
Of Defending my beliefs
There are demons all around me
Who can't take my desire
This is hell and I'm not afraid
Raise the gates and push me in the fire
