Lyrics

Breathing, but I'm borrowed time
But most don't see the sign living in a society
Where my very birth is a crime I'm told to ignore
And not carry what happened to those before
But it's looking all too familiar like it's before
Listen to the blood curdling screams
And souls leaving the body are my score
Depicted as one thing
Yet they're infatuated by the allure
Labeled a disease, Annihilation the cure
Everyone claimed to be a wolf Just talking through the snore
Programmed, your decisions already been made
Before you even got to the door
Free will? Merely an idea
A beautiful fantasy How could you not find comedy
In those that disrupt the community With mere talk
Battle of the sexes Pretend equality between races
The past tends to repeat itself
And sometimes if you look hard enough
Even some of the faces
Can you hear it
Can you see it? Can you taste it
Can you hear it, can you see it? Can you taste it, can you hear it
The cries, the screams that came before Can you see it
The bodies that swam Cut down to the floor
Can you taste it? The waters that drowned
Those that never touched the shore Can you hear it
Can you see it? Can you taste it
Can you hear it? The cries, the screams
That came before Can you see it
The bodies that swam Cut down to the floor
Can you taste it? The waters that drowned
Those that never touched the shore Can you hear it
Can you see it? Can you taste it
God and the devil walk into a bar Followed by a man
While the other two seem On an even playing field
The man suffers from wounds That need to heal
As he listens on There are moments he feels weak
Moments he grows strong A deeper meaning lingers
Yet the answer's seen below These two drinkers
Yet he remains a listener Partly by choice
Partly due to not having a voice To ask why seems too vague
As he searches for another way The room becomes quiet
He gets stuck on Wyatt Could this be a mere allegory
For self-discovery? That would mean it's all mental
And we would need to smile at past peril
A tap on the shoulder is almost half to over
As we're left to wonder Am I here just to suffer
A mere watcher? Or do my actions have meaning
To get me closer? Can you hear it
Can you see it? Can you taste it
Can you hear it? Can you see it
Can you taste it? Can you hear it
Can you see it? Can you taste it
Can you hear it? The cries, the screams
That came before Can you see it
The bodies that hung Cut down to the floor
Can you taste it? The waters that drowned
Those that never touched the shore Can you hear it
Can you see it? Can you taste it
Can you hear it? The cries, the screams
That came before Can you see it
The bodies that hung Cut down to the floor
Can you taste it? The waters that drowned
Those that never touched the shore Can you hear it
Can you see it? Can you taste it
