The People Under The Stairs |
There was a time it seemed so long ago |
The world was painted gold |
Before the hope began to corrode |
And all the people awoke to the cold |
That they had let the evil grow |
And then came the masses |
Who questioned the presence of god |
Can anyone hear us? |
These cries — these screams — will these footsteps be our last? |
So they let us die the hate behind the smiles- it took them by surprise |
And the silence left us hanging while we lit up like the 4th of July |
If ignorance is peace pretend we didn’t say «never again» |
And let forever belong to the dead |
The time is now |
This chance could be your soul redemption |
Or these tombs will bear your denial, deception, and tragedy |
One that you’ll help build when you let us burn |
Biting off your nails won’t heal the scratches on your eyes |
So they let us die the hate behind the smiles- it took them by surprise |
And the silence left us hanging while we lit up like the 4th of July |
If ignorance is peace pretend we didn’t say «never again» |
And let forever belong to the dead |
And there is no excuse |
There is no lie big enough to hide behind (our time is now) |
The blinding lights struck the people divided |
What were they waiting for (our time is now) |
So they let us die the hate behind the smiles- it took them by surprise |
And the silence left us hanging while we lit up like the 4th of July |
If ignorance is peace pretend we didn’t say «never again» |
And let forever belong to the dead |
Our time is now |
