I saw the signs The signal fires that burned atop the hill Rising tides and violent skies All the while the world was standing still Defenceless as a rat in a cage Living with our backs to the wall From the minute we wake Too sedated to notice
We're living in a nightmare A pre-apocalyptic wasteland Is there no one who can save us If we refuse to save ourselves? Our best intentions pave our path to hell
What does it mean to be a captive In the confines of your mind? What does it mean to be a hostage To the enemy inside? We've been here before I guess we learned nothing The signs were all but ignored
The planets collide as we all stop and stare Too jaded to notice
We're living in a nightmare A pre-apocalyptic wasteland Is there no one who can save us If we refuse to save ourselves? Our best intentions pave our path to hell
I see their shadows dance on the walls As voices echo in empty halls It makes my stomach sink As I close my eyes and beg for sleep
Chaos kills the calm Fingers through my palms I can't make it stop Somebody kick the chair and fucking wake me up
Spare your thoughts and prayers They'll never be enough It only tightens the noose The more we struggle to cut ourselves loose
Every cry rings out like a shot The streets run red as the forests wither and rot Declaring with their final breath Eternal fear is a fate worse than death
But no one's gonna save us If we won't fucking save ourselves Our best intentions pave our path to hell We're living in a nightmare (Never again will we sleep) A pre-apocalyptic wasteland (Until we are weary and weak) And there's no one who can save us If we refuse to save ourselves Our best intentions pave our path to hell
And you will see me there when they tighten the noose I deserve this just like the rest of youTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
