lyrics

Losing faith as I stare
Into this poison heart we share
We feel the beat everywhere
But we pretend that we don’t care
We all ignore the warning signs
We try to hide from the big surprise

We forgive the unforgivable
As if we’re not responsible
Our history’s a pattern of
Endless circles and broken lines
And when the darkness comes alive
We all act like it's a big surprise

Raze a building, write a song
Waste your breath until it's gone
Fight the future for as long
As you have the strength to carry on
And even though we know it's time
It always comes as a big surprise
