This Opportunity

We are the hivemind The collective of a thousand eyes We are the conscious mind Behind these children's cries We are the parasite And looks like you're the host Look into our eyes We are so much more than a ghost Now It's time to mend And when were done we'll see the sky We're your friends And we'll leave this wretched place behind Play pretend And we promise you that you won't die In the end We're just trying to survive Lets keep it quiet now We don't wanna make a scene She's always listening So try to hide your screams You look like someone else I think we've seen before This opportunity is way too good to ignore And I don't know why you decide To arrive down here after all this time Is it even "me"? Or "my"? Or "we"? Or "I"? Oh why can't we just be free from all these awful lies Deep inside this broken mind hides The voices, they scream, they kick, they claw and bite They fight for control and I just don't know If I can handle one more night stuck down here all alone! It wasn't long ago We were once family New faces down below Were hiding tragedy You made us for a reason So we'll make you see And we'll finally be free Take our hand And when we're done we'll see the sky In the end We're just trying to survive Time to mend And when we're done we'll see the sky We're your friends And we'll leave this wretched place behind Play pretend And we promise you that you won't die In the end We're just trying to survive
