Echoes of the Past

I'm walking down the street I only feel the sadness Coming through the walls Of stolen lives Upside down I will never understand How quickly we gave up to use Our critical thinking Why I can't just go away And leave this misery behind Stuck inside our broken mind I'm standing here aside Just watching them march Following the sound Echoes of the past It came from nothing and it started to spread Creeping around the world Made me a shell of who I am What do you see when you open your eyes That our freedom's gone Obeying words of the liars The fear has bend our knees And sentenced us to darkness To stay inside the walls Made of broken glass Upside down I will never understand Why we aren't able to learn our lesson We're stuck inside a vicious circle it repeats itself Past mistakes of a world That may never be saved A weapon in the hands of the tyrants I'm standing here aside Just watching them march Following the sound Echoes of the past I'm standing here aside Afraid of what's to come Just watching them march Following the sound Eyes blinded by the lies Echoes of the past Afraid of what's to come Echoes of the past led us to our demise Eyes blinded by the lies Once we turn our heads away They will tear us apart Made me a shell of who I am They turned their backs on human life Obeying words of the liars Echoes of the past let us to our demise
