Lift the chains
Find yourself to your voice and speak
Reclaim the life you chose to lead
Everything about this world has changed
Since we fell asleep
Pick up the ashes and weep
The world you loved is now the enemy
Bitter blood like wine, forever now intoxicating
Pick up the ashes and weep
The world you loved is obsolete
Separation led to an altered state
Divorced from our reality
Finally lost the will to fight
Let my whole life slip away
Only to find myself undone over and over
Hanging above on the highest wire
Burned through more than I can give
Only to find myself alone over and over
When the bones begin to crumble
From the poison in the rain
We're left with nothing but our memories
Until they slowly start to fade
Can we make this stop?
Can we twist the hands of fate?
Can we make this stop?
Or are we damned to taste defeat?
Finally lost the will to fight
Let my whole life slip away
Only to find myself undone over and over
Hanging above on the highest wire
Burned through more than I can give
Only to find myself alone over and over
Torment
Make this stop
Torment
Caught dead in the throes of our disease
Did you see this coming?
Caught dead in the throes of our disease
Are we all to blame?
We are constantly shamed (constantly shamed, constantly shamed)
We are constantly shamed (constantly shamed, constantly shamed)
Finally lost the will to fight
Let my whole life slip away
Only to find myself undone over and over
Hanging above on the highest wire
Burned through more than I can give
Only to find myself alone over and over
