I try to tell myself that
I don't know how I got here
Views of empty plains
And empty skies strikingly clear
Nothing withers nothing dies
Nothing flourishes or thrives
I try to tell myself that
I don't know how I got here
With no birds to sing their song
And no wind to call the breeze
Without your voice to break the silence
I'm the war, I am the violence
Just the noise of police sirens
Calling forth from the horizon
Oh, without anyone, anyone at all
To stand and fight
Without comparison, how can I recall
What's wrong and right?
(Don't pick a fight)
(I'm here tonight)
(To live my life)
(From wrong and right)
I start to walk across this land
With my head facing down
Muttering comforts to myself
Without making a sound
From the sights beyond my eyes
I can't tell if I'm alive
I'll keep on walking through this land
With my head facing down
In this stillness, I'm not calm
With this stillness, I can't find peace
Without your voice to break the silence
I'm the war, I am the violence
Just the noise of police sirens
Calling forth from the horizon
Oh, without anyone, anyone at all
To stand and fight
Without comparison, how can I recall
What's wrong and right?
Without dark, there is no light
Without earth, there is no sky
Without peace, there is no fight
Without wrong, there is no right
Without a beast to cause destruction
Or a love to show affection
Without a past meant for reflection
Calling forth from the horizon
Oh, without anyone, anyone at all
To stand and fight
Without comparison, how can I recall
What's wrong and right?
I don't want to be alone
I don't want to be on my own
I don't want to live without a home
Don't want to pretend that I don't know
(Don't pick a fight)
(I'm here tonight)
(To live my life)
(From wrong and right)
