Air Away - Letters from a Dying World Lyrics




Your heavy heart
It burdens me
The air's grown stale
From the apathy
We waste our time
In tyranny
Our own free will
Is just a dream
Bad religion
Politicians
Money preaches
And people listen
We've grown so numb
To the wolf inside of us
Warring nations
Industrialization
The poor are victims
Of wealth's oppression
What breaks our fall
A noose around our necks

You wouldn't know (You wouldn't know)
The world is so cold (The world is so cold)
Now we measure the cost
Of what our progress brought
You wouldn't know (You wouldn't know)
The memories erode (From the world made of gold)
The world that we lost
Is not the same as it was

The golden rule
Our paradigm
Has taught us how
To live and die
Obey the rules
And you'll survive
But my cup is dry
Am I out of time
Bad religion
Politicians
Money preaches
And people listen
We've grown so numb
To the wolf inside of us
Warring nations
Industrialization
The poor are victims
Of wealth's oppression
What saves us all
A bullet through our heads

You wouldn't know (You wouldn't know)
The world is so cold (The world is so cold)
Now we measure the cost
Of what our progress brought
You wouldn't know (You wouldn't know)
The memories erode (From the world made of gold)
The world that we lost
Is not the same as it was

Pandora's box
It ignites a spark
We're burning our home
To run from the flood
We bury our dead
Where the children once played
The wars that we wage
Turn brothers to slaves
The sisters we've crossed
The mothers betrayed
All for some scraps
In greed's cold embrace
Our fountain of truth
Is a fountain of lies
The ebony clock
For the last time it chimes

You wouldn't know (You wouldn't know)
The world is so cold (The world is so cold)
Now we measure the cost
Of what our progress brought
You wouldn't know (You wouldn't know)
The memories erode (From the world made of gold)
The world that we lost
Is not the same as it was
