Tip The Scales |
Are we so alone |
So distant |
So forgotten |
As we think ourselves to be? |
These are our lives |
But did they ever even matter? |
Are we worth remembering? |
These machines feed on the tears |
Of broken lives and dying dreams |
We’re throwing wrenches in the gears |
Our lives will not be lived in vain |
When this is all said and done |
We spent this life on the run |
Judged by the company we keep |
Our language, buried inside |
These lungs that keep us alive |
We breathe so selfishly |
Promises we plan to break |
Are made in whispered voices |
Cause our despair knows many names |
We make mistakes |
But we apologize with roses |
We never stop to smell along the way |
Pre-Chorus] |
These machines feed on the tears |
Of broken lives and dying dreams |
We’re throwing wrenches in the gears |
Our lives will not be lived in vain |
When this is all said and done |
We spent this life on the run |
Judged by the company we keep |
Our language, buried inside |
These lungs that keep us alive |
We breathe so selfishly |
We fell from the sky today |
We melt into balls of clay |
We sell ourselves everyday |
Don’t tell me how to live this way |
Pushed so far to the edge |
We teeter just on the brink |
You can lead me to the bloodbath |
But you can’t make me drink |
As these machines feed on the tears |
Of broken lives and dying dreams |
We’re throwing wrenches in the gears |
Our lives will not be lived in vain |
My life will not be lived in vain |
