lyrics

We are hiding in the dark,
Terrified by the light of day.

Ask now my love,
You want to see just what went wrong.
This death from above is not the worst thing left to come.

Hate the disarray
but tow the party line.
Nothing left of this path we’ve made,
The blood in the sand and the bones in our graves.
Betrayed by the blood of a nation of dust,
We are drowning in a sea of existential mistrust.

And now we’ll see just who you are,
We’ll see just what you’ll be,
We’ll see beyond the bullshit and the grandstanding.

But I can see that you are
Praying for nothing,
Begging for so much more.
Waiting for salvation
(salvation)
Hoping for what we were
And we will never be again.

The lives we live under our halos
We tell of darkened dreams fed by the storm below.
So burn the pages from the lives that we’ve led,
Sink into the sound,
Rise from the dead.

There’s nothing between us but distance and time.
I see you’re rebuilding the life I’ve denied.
I can’t believe this is what you’ve become.

(chorus)

I see you’ve earned your place,
We’ll watch it all decay in this dream of names.

(chorus)
