lyrics

-giant vacant structures expand
contract one step to build two more
the steel is stretching thin
the walls are cracking, exposing our scars
-we can’t afford to pretend anymore
the numb comfort retreats
through holes in the floor
-tremoring on the brink
with no strength to keep standing
this is what we’ve built
this is what we’ve paid for
but we still know this can’t last
-we can’t afford to pretend anymore
the numb comfort retreats
through holes in the floor
-so they yell
"let’s fix it, let’s fund it,
keep it alive a little longer,
we need to save what we have done"
but we all know it has to crumble
-guarded truths carve deep in wounds
that we've numbed in our sedation
a sedation we long to keep
in a reality we can’t control
-but in our failures there is beauty
and the exhilaration of open eyes
tearing up in the bitter wind
that lets us know we are alive
