Welcome home
While away
They have tampered with the locks
And your things they rearranged
We propose
a better way.
Said they note they left behind
In their wake of disarray
You fell in place
Dont fall asleep
Theyll find us here
I know a place to disappear
As a voice proclaimed
What we are is the sum of a thousand lies
What we know is almost nothing at all
But we are what we are until the day we die
Or until we dont have the strength to go on
Til' we don't have the strength to go on
x2
Let us cry
Let us be
Let us open up our hearts
Without fear of anything
Faith alone
Is all we need
To traverse this burning bridge
Now before it gets too late
You said. its fine
But the heart reveals
What smiles betray
Your sad sad eyes gave you away
Dont you know
What we are is the sum of a thousand lies
What we know is almost nothing at all
But we are what we are until the day we die
Or until we dont have the strength to go on
Til' we don't have the strength to go on
Our shoulders bear an awful weight
But still we trudge on just the same
These colors run then leave a stain
They blacken our once honest name
But how can we argue, tell me
Over the fury and the fire
How many times can we tell you that we
Are not like you, we see right through
Your poor disguise that fails to fool
The wary eye that is trained on you
What we are is the sum of a thousand lies |
What we know is almost nothing at all |
But we are what we are until the day we die |
Or until we dont have the strength to go on |
Til' we don't have the strength to go on _| x2
Yeah, we don't have the strength to go on
