Lyrics
So, how many times have I opened my eyes to a world unknown
It was once a home
Oh, how many times have we seen this divide with no place to go
I want to know
Make no mistake, we're all so lost
With weary hands and spiteful tongues
It seems today we'd rather talk than understand
So lift us up out of the unknown
From where the walls carry our echoes
You've heard our cries, but stayed in the shadows
To satisfy a debt that we don't owe (one day)
So how many times have our rivers run dry
And our forests glow with flames that eat our homes
And how many times must our own children die
In these hallowed halls, repaint the classroom walls oh
So, tell me if you wanted to
You know I would follow you
Don't assume we could not be any better
So lift us up out of the unknown
From where the walls carry our echoes
You've heard our cries, but stayed in the shadows
To satisfy a debt that we don't owe (one day)
Oh, this anthem's of a fraying flag, stripes drenched inchemicals
Spit out what they have force fed you, and pull the curtain up
So, tell me if you wanted to
You know I would follow you
Don't assume we could not be any better
And just before I have to go, take me to a place I know
Not too soon, waiting for the perfect moment
Oh
Lift us up
Out of the unknown
So lift us up out of the unknown
From where the walls carry our echoes
You've heard our cries, but stayed in the shadows
To satisfy a debt that we don't owe (one day)
So lift us up
Out of the unknown
You've heard our cries
But stayed in the shadows (out of the unknown)
