(Don’t you ever get tired of these shallow waters?)
(If we could just find something that matters)
We’re blinded by the light
For all we used to be
And all we thought that we could keep
To wake up somewhere else without a clue of where to run
We gave up everything just to see if we could fly
I became everything that I swore to save you from
Are we all so blind?
Have we lost sight of where to run?
Have we lost our minds?
Looking down the barrel of a loaded gun
Don’t you ever get tired of these shallow waters?
With no reality left in sight
If we could just find something that matters
Instead we’re blinded by the light
Blinded by the light
I guess this is it
This is as far as it gets
And now there’s nothing left
Guess we were never meant to fly
With no one to lead
Just a few searching for the remedies
Look at the scars we leave
Turning stars into enemies
Where will it end?
When we all escape into make belief
Are we all the same?
Have we lost all sense of “me”?
Don’t you ever get tired of these shallow waters?
With no reality left in sight
If we could just find something that matters
Instead we’re blinded by the light
And what are we to do with all the others?
All the ones who care
When all our hopes and dreams have shattered
Can we still breathe the open air?
