As we make our way
Towards another day
All the lost, hopeless, desperate, and aggrieved
We're caught in this mess
We know nothing, so we guess
While feigning comprehension like the rest
As if no one could tell
Behind the masks we wear
Each of us is going through some kind of hell
With no more lies to sell
And a truth we can't dispel
This place is but a lonely crowded cell
And how we lose our way
In trying to find a better place
But all the searches seem to be in vain
Are we only here to bear the pain?
We're all caught in this mess
We know nothing, so we guess
Still feigning comprehension like the rest
As if no one could tell
With no more lies to sell
There is no one here not experiencing hell
Just trying to find our way
In this truth-forbidding place
Where all the searches seem to be in vain
It seems we are only here to bear the pain
Of another day
Ah yes, another day
Why am I feeling nothing but the strain
Of living another day
Ah yes, another day
I would rather not feel anything
Ever again
As we lose our way
In this love-forsaken place
Where all the searches seem to be in vain
Are we only here to bear the pain?
We were all given the gift of flight
With a paralyzing fear of heights
We have all been given this gift of flight
With a paralyzing fear of heights
In a world that is nothing but cruel
You have to go through all the filth to last a day
The world is nothing but cruel
You have to go through all the filth to last a day
Oh sacred breath of life
Why is every chance to live you denied?
Oh sacred breath of life
Is it easier to leave you behind?
Than try to find our way
In this love-forsaken place
Were all the searches fruitless and vain?
Are we only here to bear this pain?
