What have we become?
|
It hits like a shotgun blast under the still-rising sun
|
These corners once preyed on by the powers-that-be
|
have fallen victim to a clean sweep
|
Get ready to hang your head in shame
|
when you're greeted by the new face
|
Of hope and fear
|
|
So lay your fingers down on the concrete and watch as they bleed
|
And listen to everyone scream out!
|
|
We have become!
|
What we were always running from
|
These bloodshot eyes open to a room on fire
|
And I'm the only one...
|
|
Holding a match
|
This doesn't feel much like a dream
|
I know that life changes
|
Does it change this quickly?
|
|
And your expectations could be met with tragedy
|
I know it doesn't seem this way
|
Just try not to believe
|
|
You and I
|
You and I
|
We couldn't change the world if we tried
|
We might as well watch it all fall
|
You and I
|
You and I
|
we couldn't save the world if we tried
|
We might as well watchi it all fall in front of our eyes
|
This is giving up!
