| Another king, another riot
|
| Another martyr’s been burned
|
| And now the streets are filled with sorrow as I wait my turn
|
| I can’t convince you there’s a problem
|
| When there’s food on your plates
|
| But I’m not here to help you solve them
|
| I’m here to test the flames
|
| My ears can’t take this anymore
|
| When did we give up?
|
| Why’d the fighting stop?
|
| I can’t bear to watch the flames…
|
| Save me forgive me… the last words I heard her say
|
| Bring me back to a time when real me walked the earth
|
| Bring me back to blackened skies of those unafraid to burn
|
| Millions of lives to turn a profit
|
| A modern slave trades begun
|
| The only reason no ones noticed
|
| Is because we sing along to every verse and empty chorus
|
| They’re playing chords we’ve all heard
|
| It makes me sick to my stomach… singing without words
|
| My ear’s can’t take this anymore
|
| When did we give up?
|
| Why’d the fighting stop?
|
| I can’t bear to watch the flames…
|
| Save me forgive me… the last words I heard her say
|
| How do you say goodbye to something you’ve been your whole life?
|
| How do you walk away from something you fought for… from someone you’d die for
|
| When did we give up?
|
| Why’d the fighting stop?
|
| I can’t bear to watch the flames…
|
| Save me forgive me… the last words I heard her say |
