Smiles cover the surface
As we're forsaken on the inside.
We have been for some time.
Conditions aren't shaping out as we'd hoped for.
I lay horizontal counting the affairs that we've done wrong.
You kill the words but you cannot kill our voice
So we'll sing this 'til we're dead.
Please inscribe on our grave
That we did this our way.
I'll walk along this never-ending road,
Searching for our lost souls.
Are we wasting away?
Never meant to reach the summit yet we will convey.
We make our stand today.
You question the loyalties you were born to betray.
Running from the truth won't get you anywhere
So light your fires, we will cleanse.
Render yourself within the darkest sky
So you can be the brightest light.
I walked along this never-ending road
With you as my compass. I'll find my way back home.
Open your mouth but they'll never hear another word.
You'll start the fire but you're the only one who'll burn.
Never again will you see the light of day
'Cos we're the ship, you're the shore and we sailed away.
