Hey you're now thirsty
|
Walking in the desert all alone
|
Hey you're now searching
|
Lost in isolation from your soul
|
The bullets you bite
|
From the pain you request
|
You're finding harder to digest
|
And the answers you seek
|
Are the ones you destroy
|
Your anger's well deployed
|
|
Hey why can't you listen
|
Hey why can't you hear
|
Hey why can't you listen
|
As love screams everywhere
|
|
Hey you now hunger
|
Feeding your mind with selfishness
|
Hey you now wander
|
Aimlessly around your consciousness
|
Your prophecies fail
|
And your thoughts become weak
|
Silence creates necessity
|
You're clothing yourself
|
In the shields of despair
|
Your courage now impaired
|
|
You crucify all honesty
|
No signs you see do you believe
|
And all your words just twist and turn
|
Reviving just to crash and burn
|
You're fighting till the bitter end
|
If only your heart could open up
|
And listen
|
