Closed eyes to outside's deception

Fighting for a way to see, this is not what we envisioned

Things are never what they seem

Will we ever find a way to end this?

(Be)cause I'm afraid that it's all a lie

We'll keep searching for the life they promised

Your hand in mine

Caught in a chain reaction

If we go, what will we find?

Blinded by all these distractions

How could we make it out alive?

This passion building inside me, our hollow hearts denied

We're all left starving for answers

The only thing that we know is this weight that we hold

We won't stand, we won't stand down

While everything that we have is just slipping away

We won't stand, we won't stand down

While everything that we have is just slipping away

And with this road we take will be able to see the best in everything?

It's all we need

If we believe, we can change anything

Will we ever find a way to end this?

(Be)cause I'm afraid that it's all a lie

We'll keep searching for the life they promised

Your hand in mine

No one left can save us, as locusts block the sun

The earth shatters and tides run red

With blood!
