The power behind the words we speak is really what matters most
They can't stop us now
Changing lives with a movement of emotions
This is where we long to be
A broken man left to pick up the pieces
Leaves a hungry world starving for change
Feast and famine
The strong and weak
Keep running circles
Sons and daughters
The starving mothers
They can't stand on their own
We won't stand alone
I'm crying out to be the change we want to see
Yet too scared to face reality
You will never be the leader
This is all I'll ever have, this is the voice I breathe
The power behind the words we speak is really what matters most
They can't stop us now
Changing lives with a movement of emotions
This is where we long to be
This false leadership will fall to the sound of our voices
A broken man left to pick up the pieces
Leaves a hungry world starving for change
I'm left in this world starving for change
We follow blindly what our eyes can't see
Yet we wonder why we have been deceived
Be the change you want see
Don't become what they want us to be
This is all I'll ever have
This is the voice I breathe

Chorus of the Dead
02:00
|

You still remain a thorn in my side
You picked me apart and left nothing behind
There's never relief, this only drags on and on
I pray for the day we sing the same song
Sing it
Ask me about me, what about me?
Still I'm too spineless to think for myself
There's never relief, this only drags on and on
I pray for the day we sing the same song
Sing it
Sing it out loud
I want to see it for myself
Mislead oneself
Shake me, I wish you would
I refuse to turn in this grave
Shake me, I wish you would
I no longer see myself beside you
Awaken me, I wish you would
You left the knife in my back
Now pull it out
You still remain a thorn in my side
You picked me apart and left nothing behind
There's never relief, this only drags on and on
I pray for the day we sing the same song
Sing it
Sing it out loud

New Low

You have something to say
Don't we all
You stand for something far greater
I've watched you spit it a me from a distance
Spit the dirt from your mouth to fill my grave
You shed the scales to clothe our wool
We see you hiding in the shade
You've left a hole for me
Fill it up, so fill it up
So sick of giving my body
So sick of giving my life to make a new start
You shed the scales to clothe our wool
We see you hiding in the shade
You've left a hole for me
Fill it up, so fill it up
You have something to say
Don't we all
You stand for something far greater
We have one life to live and it was over before could it began
We've met a new low
Stay down with me
They're throwing up
Bleed the old veins
They're all so high
Stay down with me
I'm holding hands with the cold, bitter and dead
They left this hole for me
Let the grace above fill me in
This was not my dream for you and I
This was out of my reach from the start
Broken promises are I can all can give
This was not my dream for you and I
You have something to say
You stand for something greater
I've watched you spit it at me from a distance
Spit the dirt from your mouth to fill my grave
You shed the scales to clothe our wool
We see you hiding in the shade

Wash the salt away
But still the rust remains
And the sun is still shining
Still the ice persists
With unchanging cold
I know I'll see you again
Leaves and branches still remain
Below the snow they lay above their graves
Our roots stay still and warm
And through the ashes of our burning homes
Lay the burning bones of the ones we loved
I know we'll see you again
We take this world for granted
I know I reap what I sow
Deliver me all I deserve
Our defeat is certain
This is certain
I am dirt, I am nothing
Make me what you need to walk upon
Take me back to when heart resembled what it's like to live
What it's like to love
I've changed since that day they left you burning
laying still outside your grave
Wash the salt away
But still the rust remains
And the sun is still shining
Still the ice persists
With unchanging cold
I know I'll see you again
Leaves and branches still remain
Below the snow they lay above their graves
Our roots stay still and warm
And through the ashes of our burning homes
Lay the burning bones of the ones we loved
I know we'll see you again
