And all these things that we tie together
|
Keep unraveling apart
|
And the light that used to burn so bright
|
Now is dark
|
With anger-laced intent we set fire
|
To the bridges that remain
|
And they're wading through the current now.
|
|
And they drown in the flood of the tears
|
That have been wept
|
And I scream to the sky
|
"no, you are not alone..."
|
|
If you think that your words will ever make a difference
|
Think again and carry on
|
Because the weight behind the hand that holds us is strong
|
But there is hope in the roar of a thousand pleading cries
|
And all these things that we tie together
|
|
The sound of their tongues being bitten
|
Is all I hear
|
As we fire at the whites of theirs eyes then
|
Dance on ashes of the world
|
|
As they drown in the flood of the tears
|
That have been wept
|
And their tongues being bitten
|
Is all that I can hear
|
As I scream to the sky,
|
"I need you now..."
|
|
Can you feel this truth now unraveling?
|
Or will you chase the burning sun
|
Into the sea.
