Song lyrics

I can't blame you,
I can't save you but I will try,
For you and I,
For you and I.

I won't find out
All the dirty little things that you've done,
But I will try.

I'm coming for you giants, and you liars, and your chariots of fire!
You charmers with your anecdotes have started to show your true colors.

Now I'm staring at the moon
Wondering why the bottom fell out,
I've been searching for answers and there's questions I found.
Open you eyes, and share this burden somehow.
Are you ready to drink or are you waiting to drown?

I would break you
Before I let you fall into a blind,
For you and I,
For you and I.

I will breath in
All the truth I can stomach
If it keeps you alive.

We've changed the dreamers and the preachers and the wise men on the hill
To concrete stepping smilers terrified to lose their power and control!

We've been crying for a leader to speak like the old prophets!
The blood of the forgotten wasn't spilled without a purpose, or was it?

Now I'm staring at the moon
Wondering why the bottom fell out,
I've been searching for answers and there's questions I found.
Open you eyes, and share this burden somehow.
Are you ready to drink or are you waiting to drown?

You'll never be whole until you lose control,
And think freely to smash the wall of apathy,
Stop your self-importance and lift the weight off somebody else.

You'll never be whole until you lose control,
And stop drinking the wine, that's been dripping
From lips of the gluttons, and envying their bloody teeth.

You'll never be whole until you lose control.
