[Instrumental Intro]


[Verse 1]

A quiet moment fills the air

This doldrum of our existence

The faith we lost in times of fear

Mesmerized by this persistence

No reason now for despair

This final message of resistance

We pray we hold onto this dream

This evolution of persecution


[Verse 2]

The red in their eyes constricts the flow

This frozen ground of true conviction

Shadows of men move through the earth

This human target of extinction

A final shot is solemnly heard

Who will get this final word?

The earth covers the shattered remains

Life and death are really the same


[Chorus]

The pain you feel is not for real

The moments you spend wondering how it will end

In a time, in a place

In a state of human grace

In a breath, in a death

In a sound where you will be found


[Verse 3]

A quiet moment fills the air

This doldrum of our existence

The faith we lost in time of fear

Mesmerized by this persistence


[Chorus]

The pain you feel is not for real

The moments you spend wondering how it will end

In a time, in a place

In a state of honour and grace

In a breath, in a death

In a sound where you will be found
