They say they’re with you it don’t seem to be the truth We think we’re doing the right thing inside the booth And we ask our surrogates to reign on proof And they don’t sacrifice a thing Do you feel alone They stump and use you all to keep their longer days Telling us the pain they’ve spread is just a phase And by the time we think we’ve figured out their ways You’ve sacrificed most everything Draw the shades and then we’ll tie up all the slack Choose a change only to bring the same dogs back Forcing all of you to bleed the brown dirt black And we don’t sacrifice a thing Do you feel alone Some say, some say, some say Heaven’s gates are sparkling for you Some say, some say, some say I wish there was more that I could do Some say, some say, some say I can’t spare a dime I wash my hands They say, they say, they say Right there on your hip is where they stand Some say, some say, some say Heaven’s gates are sparkling for you Some say, some say, some say I wish there was more that I could do Some say, some say, some say I can’t spare a dime I wash my hands They say, they say, they say Even though they sleep at night right on your hip is where they stand And you know that they’re only going to save themselves Using words in their acrobatic style But their halls hold the memories of a million lies And the king of all they’re right there by your side And we don’t want you to feel alone No we don’t want you to feel alone We’re trying to get you returned back home So you’ll be never again alone Cause we don’t want you to feel alone No we don’t want you to feel alone We’re trying to get you returned back home So you’ll be never again alone We’ll bring you home but like before they’ll find a way to send you back And you’ll sacrifice your everything

I closed my eyes hours ago Still haven’t drifted off, thoughts aglow This pounding heart’s beating will end There’s no escaping what’s round the bend Answer me Why must we Face this great unknown This can’t be right Tossing all night Tried counting sheep Tired but can’t sleep I’m underground Can’t hear a sound Lungs won’t expand Legs cannot stand And the rest I can’t see And it’s frightening me Boxed in peeling away For it’s here I’ll stay Answer me Why must we Face this great unknown And we’ll always seek But we’ll never find What it is we’re looking for What is it we’re looking for Can we know Some of me is lost Some of me is found Some of me is seeking truth Some of me has been done with truth Since long ago And I’ve been Aimless from the start Questions in my heart Told things were a certain way Only will be sure on that day When I’m called home Now I can hardly breathe Cause the rest I can’t see And it’s frightening me Boxed in peeling away For it’s here I’ll stay Rejoining our past Ones before last Nowhere to roam In our new home Solace is found Under the ground Knowing that you Will be there too Answer me Why must we Face this great unknown
