Through the lens of despair
The well of information
It seeps the foundation once more
Through the scope of the lies
We're craving declaration
Without dedication
And through no fault of our own
We're failing
Safe to say we neglect the wound
The moments passing by so slow
Reduced to machines and delay
We treasure the memories and swallow the key
Embracing the one we used to hate
(Used to hate...)
Stand together as one, a lonesome celebration
Secluded, we share and inform
Stare into the abyss, avoid the conversation
A dead concentration
And as we revel in time
It's over!
Safe to say we neglect the wound
The moments passing by so slow
Reduced to machines and delay
We treasure the memories and swallow the key
Embracing the one we used to be
We neglect the ones who care
We forge pretenses in what we share
We neglect what matters most
Sick to say we neglect the wound
The moments passing by so slow
Reduced to machines and delay
Hold onto the memories and cast them away
Embracing the glimpse of yesterday
Cornerstones of the past
Buildings that last forever
