The Light

We separate From those fed from the silver plate Ignore the state Of mind we destroy to create A life of fear Seems we get further every year It's never been so clear Blend with the system disappear Into the dark Consumed by greed within our hearts And in our minds Growing more selfish every time We see the light Seems like we're shut down by a million prying eyes It's hard to be a ghost Starting to hate everyone you've ever known Then turn to stone We're all gonna burn With the ashes of tomorrow What's left to learn What's gonna follow Us down to our graves Will you rest in peace Knowing you had everything while I'm just relieved To not live in despair Can't constantly defy the odds Try not to care While I'm crawling back into my skin And stones are cast From all those houses made of glass It comes so fast Seems like the futures one big past Our blood and scars Our minds break down and in our hearts We hold the key It seems we're all too blind to see Beyond ourselves We fabricate our own personal hells And never see the light Fighting amongst ourselves our planet cries Then we all die We're all gonna burn With the ashes of tomorrow What's left to learn What's gonna follow Us down to our graves Will you rest in peace Knowing you had everything while I'm just relieved To not live in despair Can't constantly defy the odds Try not to care While I'm crawling back into my skin We'll never see the light Fighting amongst ourselves our planet cries Then we all die We're all gonna burn With the ashes of tomorrow What's left to learn What's gonna follow Us down to our graves Will you rest in peace Knowing you had everything while I'm just relieved To not live in despair Can't constantly defy the odds Try not to care While I'm crawling back into my skin
