Lyrics

Assume a virtue, if you have it not.
The rest is silence
In a false quarrel there is no true valour.
Our remedies oft in ourselves do lie.
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.
A wretched soul, bruised with adversity,
We know what we are, but not what we may be.

Modern Day Shakespeare
I hope it's clear
Before you point your finger here
Look in the mirror
Modern Day Shakespeare

Suspicion always haunts the guilty mind.
The sands are number'd that make up his life.
But were we burdened with like weight of pain,
As much or more we should ourselves complain.

Modern Day Shakespeare
I hope it's clear
Before you point your finger here
Look in the mirror
Modern Day Shakespeare

Virtue and genuine graces in themselves speak what no words can utter
We bid be quiet when we heard it cry
All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players.
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts... and takes his chances
Takes his chances
And he rest is silence (repeat)
You'll remember me
Just wait and see
You'll remember me someday

The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.
Although the last, not least. Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall.
Nothing will come of nothing. Love all, trust a few. Do wrong to none.
Thou shalt be both the plaintiff and the judge of thine own cause.

I hope it's clear
Before you point your finger here
Look in the mirror
Modern Day Shakespeare
