lyrics
So find me in the treetops,
find me in the depths of my reality
we won't dine alone tonight,
Perception is everything
Stand so tall
Fall all the way back down
we've sparked a fire that we'll never put back out
so unwell, cuz' we were born into bad health
this is the remedy we can't keep to ourselves
and the smoke, it rose
to the skies
like dying flames
the fires, fight the dark
destined to lose
where no one can hear them
(like no one can hear me)
Even the brightest light cast a shadow
(like no one can hear me)
Even the brightest light cast a shadow
We've seen more war
Than our guns were meant for
Wipe the tears from your face,
here we go, to war
remember the rage at what they took
from us
You see this land,
remember how you toiled under its sun
we'll bring war to see that it's
undone
we march to war
the smoke, it rose
to the skies
like dying flames
the fires, fight the dark
destined to lose
where no one can hear them
(like no one can hear me)
Even the brightest light cast a shadow
(like no one can hear me)
Even the brightest light cast a shadow
find me in the depths of my reality
we won't dine alone tonight,
Perception is everything
Stand so tall
Fall all the way back down
we've sparked a fire that we'll never put back out
so unwell, cuz' we were born into bad health
this is the remedy we can't keep to ourselves
and the smoke, it rose
to the skies
like dying flames
the fires, fight the dark
destined to lose
where no one can hear them
(like no one can hear me)
Even the brightest light cast a shadow
(like no one can hear me)
Even the brightest light cast a shadow
We've seen more war
Than our guns were meant for
Wipe the tears from your face,
here we go, to war
remember the rage at what they took
from us
You see this land,
remember how you toiled under its sun
we'll bring war to see that it's
undone
we march to war
the smoke, it rose
to the skies
like dying flames
the fires, fight the dark
destined to lose
where no one can hear them
(like no one can hear me)
Even the brightest light cast a shadow
(like no one can hear me)
Even the brightest light cast a shadow
