Lyrics The Ghosts We Will Become - Nations Afire

The Ghosts We Will Become

Cut down on the prime or our lives
We gotta crippling addiction to parade our inhibitions with pride
I can’t hear a single word that you say
Because the band won’t stop
'till everyone can hear what they’re saying
It makes me crazy
It’s something in me
At night so all alone
Am I am the only one who knows?
This ain’t a life
It’s a long death sentence
Take all you can from this curse
(open your eyes)
So tell me why you’re surprised we’re livid
When we live like the ghosts we’ll become
(this is our time rise)
Born ready for the final goodbye
It’s in the air we breathe like the cold kiss of the knife
I can’t abandon hope, abandon grace
I know they’re never with me
It makes me crazy
Is something wrong with me?
And now the summers gone
Am I the only one who knows?
This ain’t a life
It’s a long death sentence
Take all you can from this curse
(open your eyes)
So tell me why you’re surprised we’re livid
When we live like the ghosts we’ll become
(this is our time rise)
Rise, rise
This is your wake up call
Rise, rise
Nobody lives forever
Open your eyes
This is your wake up call
This ain’t a life
It’s a long death sentence
Take all you can from this curse
(open your eyes)
So tell me why you’re surprised we’re livid
When we live like the ghosts we’ll become
(this is our time rise)
This ain’t a life
It’s a long death sentence
Take all you can from this curse
(open your eyes)
So tell me why you’re surprised we’re livid
When we live like the ghosts we’ll become
(this is our time rise)
(rise)
