Lyrics
love come down upon us til you flow like water
burning
with the hope of insight
feathered
look their colored
with a bright elation
stolen
in the sight of love
we are we are we are
but your children
finding our way around a decision
we are we are we are
rather helpless
take us forever
a whisper to scream
birds fly
in the eye of the faithless daughter
broken
at the bitter end
wasted
sacrificed for a new nirvana
night time
sends us on our way
we are we are we are
but your children
finding our way around a decision
we are we are we are
rather helpless
take us forever
a whisper to a scream
a whisper to a scream
we are we are we are
but your children
finding our way around a decision
we are we are we are
rather helpless
take us forever
a whisper to a scream
(we are we are we are we are we are)
whisper to a scream
(we are we are we are we are we are)
whisper to a scream
love come down upon us til you flow like water
burning
with the hope of insight
feathered
look their colored
with a bright elation
stolen
in the sight of love
we are we are we are
but your children
finding our way around a decision
we are we are we are
rather helpless
take us forever
a whisper to a scream
birds fly
in the eye of the faithless daughter
broken
at the bitter end
wasted
sacrificed for a new nirvana
night time
sends us on our way
we are we are we are
but your children
finding our way around a decision
we are we are we are
rather helpless
take us forever
a whisper to a scream
a whisper to a scream
we are we are we are
but your children
finding our way around a decision
we are we are we are
rather helpless
take us forever
a whisper to a scream
