How do you believe in something more when you never see it?
Have you ever yearned for something more, but had to retrieve it?
Its fading all around, It has me pulling everyone around me to the ground
I feel it coming down, this has to be the only thing that's left me empty
Taken from the depths of all that's left, it seems I'm leaving
All the visions I've kept inside my heart now have me bleeding
How do you justify the words that spill right from the ones that hold you up
Why do you sanctify the anger of the ones that turn their back on you
How can this be the only way
Does it matter when the waves come crashing down
This is the only way to show this world of loneliness
One Word
One Voice
We the people of the broken life
refuse to fall to the rhetoric
that has us broken, we will live
under one direction, so sick of it
To be the only one to stand for this
how do you save me from the anarchy
This used to be deceiving, now its gone
The one and only thing I knew was wrong
Take a step back from the path you walk to see them leading
Put a hand out for someone to hold just to be spit on
Its fading all around and I can do nothing to change your mind
It all comes down the same no matter how we choose to say our name
How can this be the only way"
Does it matter when the waves come crashing down
This is the only way to show this world of loneliness
