Time ticks by, and yet we still try To fuel a world in which we swallow indifference Time ticks by, and yet I still cry For all the souls that won't strive just to shape their fate I'm struggling to find a reason to continue taking breath (Don't look outside, the world's on fire) A decade spent in grim confinement has me wondering what is left for me (Don't look outside, the world's on fire) I've got the eyes of the gods The same ones who sold us greed for heart
You want to know how it ends? We all die alone so disrobe And feel the chill of the earth beneath your feet Say something now I'm regretting and falling But I know how the chorus goes It's silent now Even though there's so much to say You willingly run away I'll build a bed where we can lay all our cares to rest I'll lay the foundation so hope can follow it And I won't throw aside all that has caused us to grieve I'll lock it inside of me
