This empire of silence sways in the wind Leaves for the winter won't you shelter me Look in the mirror, tell me what you see A cause for the cancer or a remedy? Every rung beneath my feet The weight will bare on shoulders built to lean The strength inside a seed (we're all alone) If I learn from our deceits Let the water guide us to the sea For all our wounds will heal We're all alone We're building walls where there should have been bridges Borders in the land that we roam We pray for war like it's a fucking religion When greed is all we know (greed is all we know) Greed is all we know Conditioned innocent with love's intention Confused together, realize we're all the same (we're all the same) This empire of silence sways in the wind Leaves for the winter won't you shelter me Look in the mirror, tell me what you see A cause for the cancer or a remedy? Pull out the knife that you've earned This world's a loss to an age of a self loving race With no desire to change Emergency positions please, reprieve humanity We're building walls where there should have been bridges Borders in the land that we roam We pray for war like it's a fucking religion When greed is all we know We're building walls where there should have been bridges Borders in the land that we roam We pray for war like it's a fucking religion When greed is all we know (greed is all we know) We won't give up on the truth We won't give in to their rules We're not afraid of the world corrupted We won't give up on you
