Sight revived, I noticed I’ve been sleeping far too long Filled and idle waiting while the maestros wrote their songs Herded in with introverts who never even want to play, until One by one they disappear to skip the losing game Anything to save me from my fate of blending in And maybe if I crack my shell, there will be light in dying skin And maybe we can find a life when all our life is spent, but For now it seems we’ll burn until the end Don’t want to war against the tyrant if there’s nothing in his stead Do I have to burn against the witch if her curses go unsaid? Avoided being broken, now you don’t feel a thing The bones are starved for battle, quiet’s making your ears ring Don’t want to sing depressing lyrics warn the world the end is nigh or Sound the horn to bask in fame, like you, before we die Blind your eyes to wisdom shared or any lesson learned, but don’t act surprised When you’re the one who’s burned And maybe we can find a life when all our life is spent, but For now it seems we’ll burn until the end Back at the ledge where I leapt, a tender memories left Of feeling like, at least, I knew the score Maybe I lied to myself, lying awake in the cell And maybe now it’s time that I soared I won’t sit by the television and watch them all live their lives Might as well sprint on towards the cliff and hope to God that I fly Come on! Why do you think you want to wait? What Armageddon? Want to save the date? If so fine, just save me a plate. We’ll let the other crowd warm themselves by the lake Don’t want to sing depressing lyrics warn the world the end is nigh or Sound the horn to bask in fame, like you, before we die Blind your eyes to wisdom shared or any lesson learned, but don’t act surprised When you’re the one who’s burned And maybe we can find a life when all our life is spent, but For now it seems we’ll burn until the end
