No Time To React


Claimed a natural disorder
From glass houses we throw stones
Well at least they're all made bullet proof
Built to isolate alone

As division breeds this sickness
Moved across these quiet streets
Darkness hovers in the storm lit skies
Slowly landing at our feet

No one wants to say it, there's nobody fighting back
We've been picking off our differences with no time to react
Trained and at the ready, each dispute to propagate
It's far too late, it's far too late...

We can feel it taking over
Spilling out to save ourselves
There's no need for such destructiveness
But it suits us all so well

With these arguments to feed on
What's the sense in our resolve?
Split apart to play the final chords
In this never ending song

No one wants to say it, there's nobody fighting back
We've been picking off our differences with no time to react
Trained and at the ready, each dispute to propagate
It's far too late, it's far too late...

From incestuous opinions
Revolving doors we can't escape
All returned for some intolerance
Born in fear to fuel this hate

Now we struggle with excuses
Lost to truths we'll never face
We can't be saved, we can't be saved

Obscuring what lies forward, over shoulders we look back
Begging for some closure when there's no time to react
Lined up at the ready, they all watch it propagate
It's far too late, it's far too late
