lyrics

Being part of a race gone wrong
Will you conform to the nothingness man has done?
I can see they are losing themselves and falling away
Coming back to what this world continues to say
Being part of a race that has lost direction
Like a child trying to find its way in the dark

Take a step back and look at this needless craving
This is me telling you to think for yourself
To reflect on the 'justification' for every bit
And stop this binding of yourself to regret
This is what you should not forget

What it would mean
To weld back together and make amends
What it would mean to become hope
To a generation committing a suicide
Of the mind

I watch as their poorly built walls around them
Collapse in and close any chance of seeing light
I watch as they bury themselves alive
under the rubble of life
Still they wonder why and refuse to fight

There's been too many crushed from the pain
Of a world continuing to crush the restrained
But I refuse to let these struggles be in vain
To see one more changed
I won't stand by as the
Death toll of the minds continues to rise
I'll scream this 'til my throat bleeds out
Be strong, have heart
Face this addiction to nothingness

I'm fed up with what this world wants us to be
Aren't we meant to be free?
I hope that one day they might think outside of themselves
And meet this with a level head
I can only hope they will eventually see
And prove to themselves that part of this process is dead
After all, you only have yourself to blame
For the character that tries to repress its own shame

Constructed from the calls of a dying world
There's no point in conforming to this toxic mould
Inhaling the ashes of a broken lifestyle
And leaving the embers to fester in the lungs
To breathe for a living dead race
Just a living dead race
Reclaim your mind, there is so much more
There's something in this life worth fighting for

What it would mean
To weld back together and make amends
What it would mean
To become hope
To a generation committing a suicide
What it would mean
To weld back together and make amends
What it would mean
To become hope
To a generation committing a suicide
Of the mind
