I've sent a million prayers
I've shared a million shares
That don't make a change
We've chased a million thrills
We've popped a million pills
That don't stop the pain
The war on knowledge wages on
We wait with bated breath at sunsets for brighter dawns
This is the miracle the mess
Of brilliance of idle minds of all this loneliness
You've won a million wars
Captured a million souls
That don't make you strong
We know a million words
We know a million chords
That don't make a song
The war on knowledge wages on
We wait with bated breath at sunsets for brighter dawns
This is the miracle the mess
Of brilliance of idle minds of all this loneliness
Push us toward the outrage
They push us toward the fear
They push us toward the feeling
That the facts cannot be clear
Push us to want money
They push us to want fame
They push the faulty fiction
That we are not the same
This is the miracle the mess
Of brilliance of idle minds of all this loneliness
The war on knowledge wages on and on and on
We wait with bated breath at sunsets for brighter dawns
This is the miracle this is the mess
Of brilliance of idle minds of all this loneliness
