We're gasping for air once again
Because this sickness in our lungs
Is tearing more than us apart
It's killing love
Trying it's best to do us in
Will we prevail in the end
Or will we cower and then let it win
Giving in to death
Drawing in our last breath
Suffocating,
Clinging on to fragments of what's left
I guess we dance for the ones we remember
Laying down their lives well we stay at home
And we don't know what it takes
To be tolerant enough to accept that
We will never know what it's like
To be forced and have no choice
You either starve or risk your life to survive
The very fabric of our echo chamber
Is coming apart at its seams
And now the whispers from the outside
Are louder than they've ever been
Exposing imperfections
Inherent in our ways of living
Inevitable change is on the rise
Run for the hills
This concrete kills
It's built on misery
Say no more,
It won't get you and me
I guess we dance for the ones we remember
Laying down their lives well we stay at home
And we don't know what it takes
To be tolerant enough to accept that
We will never know what it's like
To be forced and have no choice
You either starve or risk your life to survive
