There's a reason I can't look you in the eye Living in ignorance, a cruel disguise Pockets full of greed To see what hatred breeds We must break the mask of pride
Strip the walls of satisfaction Abide and comply We built their pillars of gold How will we survive?
I watch the Sun drain through the cracks in the sky I'll let you burn for all our hope was denied Watch as the Sun drains through the cracks in the sky Return to bone, ascend into the night
(There's a reason why we preach hate 'Cause we're divided by our own disdain Are we waiting to be saved?) Or are we shattered by the truth we face? Witness truth in devastation Abide or deny The script was written in stone We're prisoners in our minds
I feel the odds stacked against me Unmistakable, unforgivable Egos built on our paper fields We break the mask of pride
We built these pillars of gold How did we survive?
I watch the Sun drain through the cracks in the sky I'll let you burn for all our hope was denied Watch as the Sun drains through the cracks in the sky Return to bone, ascend into the night (Ascend into the night)
I watch the Sun drain through the cracks in the sky Return to bone, ascend into the night
There's a reason why we preach hate We're divided by our own disdain Are we waiting to be saved? Shattered by the truth we face Ascend Ascend Ascend Ascend into the night
