Heartfelt Holograms - Revenge or Turn the Other Cheek Lyrics

Ye have heard that it hath been said
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth
But I say unto you
That ye resist not evil
But whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek
Turn to him the other also

The fury burns within my soul
As I face the ones who seek control
Their words, a venomous, deadly sting
My heart cries out for vengeance to bring

The fire rages like a burning sea
As I wrestle with this duality
To forgive or to fight back
The conflict rages
A riddle to crack

Should I turn the other cheek
Or rise up and make them seek
Mercy's call
Or wrath's release
Torn apart by this inner plea
Revenge seems so bitter sweet
After all I'm a different breed
Should I turn the other cheek

The guilt makes me feel so cold
As revenge seems to be so bold
But I can't ignore the inner me
To smite everyone I see

Maybe in the icy wind
The pain of others won't have me pinned
I can't let go of the things you did
For your life I think you should bid

Should I turn the other cheek
Or rise up and make them seek
Mercy's call
Or wrath's release
Torn apart by this inner plea
Revenge seems so bitter sweet
After all I'm a different breed
Should I turn the other cheek

Perhaps the answer lies in the pain
To find the strength to love again
But until then I'll face this test
And search for the path that I must best

Should I turn the other cheek
Or rise up and make them seek
Mercy's call
Or wrath's release
Torn apart by this inner plea
Revenge seems so bitter sweet
After all I'm a different breed
Should I turn the other cheek

Should I turn the other cheek
Or rise up and make them seek
Mercy's call
Or wrath's release
Torn apart by this inner plea
Revenge seems so bitter sweet
After all I'm a different breed
Should I turn the other cheek
Should I turn the other cheek
Should I turn the other cheek

Perhaps the answer lies in the pain
To find the strength to love again
But until then
I'll face this test
And search for the path that I must best
