lyrics

My dearest friends, what's been made of us again?
We're back to broken bones; begging, pleading for an end.
Can't you see this whole while they've had us by our throats?
Sad to say, day-by-day, it's only what we chose.
We're always dredging for more distance;
we'd drown if it made us 'different',
so we'll suffer through asphyxiation at our own insistence.
Every lost and listless spirit.
Every severed stretch of hands.
Every rabid riot ridiculing bright, ripe romance.
The mind can truly ascend to heights far beyond our grasp,
so when will we reach from these shallows we've called truth?
Why must we accept all we are told
and never question anything ambiguous or veiled?
This time I swear we'll more than simply be.
We'll care about where the road ends,
each breath birthed by hope.
