We stand on the shoulders of those who came before us
Far better men than those who we have chose to become
Born free from consequence, self-indulgent and apathetic
Until the day in which we take our last breath
We run away, we run away, when this life begins to break our shoulders
We turn away, we turn away, when this burden is just to much to carry
Tonight, a silent witness, knows what it's like to, to be a ghost
Sunrise, we will wake to, a place past saving, the path we chose
As I peer at the world in it's current state, the thought terrifies me, that this is what we Are leaving behind, for those to follow, hopeless now, all we can do is sit and wonder What have we done, what have we become, what have we done?
We run away, we run away, when this life begins to break our shoulders
We turn away, we turn away, when this burden is just to much to carry on, can we carry on?
We turn our shoulders on those who helped us get to where we are, now for them there's no regard
Show mercy to the ones who tried to save us all, for them there's no reward
We are the broken, we are the lost, here we are, here we are
Not lost, not broken, the struggle will not be unspoken
