Now we're running from the bomb
But something's going wrong again
Attacking every dreamer's cause
Tell me when this nightmare ends
Trying hard to find a place
Makes no sense, no race to win
Keep your stories self-contained
Someone's always listening in
No one's coming back, coming back now
Watch us hit the floor until it's started sinking in
Freedom from the facts in the background
Trying to quell the fire when there's nothing to forgive
Losing ground to stay awake
Avoiding what we've failed to see
Shutting down won't lead to change
But now this future's changing me
So let me out of here, won't you let me out of here?
Let me out of here, you need to let me out of here
No one's coming back, coming back now
Watch us hit the floor until it's started sinking in
Freedom from the facts in the background
Trying to quell the fire when there's nothing to forgive
Each star that we see burning out in the sky
All come into focus long after they've died
In lessons we learn from our birth to the grave
We're taught what to worship, not how to behave
If silence is golden then quiet your head
Don't ignore these mistakes and take heed from the dead
It isn't as simple as one might believe
In order to listen, you can't always speak
No one's coming back, coming back now
Watch us hit the floor until it's started sinking in
Freedom from the facts in the background
Trying to quell the fire when there's nothing to forgive
Trying to quell the fire when there's nothing to forgive
Trying to quell the fire when it's all in what you give
