What We Are
------------
Billions of faces looking to the sky
Searching for that ever elusive answer
Shining stars keep their words to themselves
Looking inside is not an option
We\'re afraid of ourselves.
Emotional outbursts are not becoming of us
We\'re better than how we were designed
Hold it back, swallow it up, push it in
Silence is stronger than the fist you make
We are human.
We are angry.
We are sad.
We are hungry.
We are alive.
Being free does not mean being without reality
Even in this world of strangling truth and lies
Nobody steps outside of the law
Unless you\'ve got the money, the gun, or the drugs
Power is as power does
We all want to control ourselves
Control is faith, faith is control
Tying your hands will save your soul
We are lonely.
We are afraid.
We are indignant.
We are awake.
We are liars.
Billions of faces living on a small world
But every one of us is alone
We cannot feel eachother
And we\'re afraid to embrace those that are different
The thin line between life and servitude was crossed
Hold that job until you\'re old enough to die
Watch your children corrupt from within
Hold your lover\'s hand when your moment arives
We are strong.
We are weak.
We are everything.
We are each other.
We are one.

Hello Darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains...
