No One Will Teach You

Every power that rises up must fall apart

Every life that ends will someday start again

Every power that rises up must fall apart

Every life that ends will someday start again

Eyes shift to filter the unseen

We deny our reality

Lives drifting through the space between

Death and eternity

Every power that rises up must fall apart

Every life that ends will someday start again

Brief serenity takes its leave, making way for chapters of despair

This is our cross to bеar

Blinded

Chosen to conquer and pursuе

Misfortune falls on the absent-minded

Broken from all that we've been through

We wander with no guidance

We’re separated, as we scream

There's no air left for us to breathe

And what's left between you and me

We’ve destroyed, strategically

No one will teach you to see

Blinded egocentrically

Apathetic we still scream

Choking on smoke from conceit

No one will teach you

(Our perception's damaged from the start)

No one will teach you

(Without light to navigate the dark)

No one will teach you

(Every struggle makes us who we are)

No one will teach you

To see hate is perpetuated to facilitate greed

I will stabilize

In equilibrium

At glory's call, you build your walls, now standing tall (When you get what you give, equilibrium)

Time takes us all, before too long, I'll watch you fall

Souls of the damned writhe in pain as the devil scalds their ever-changing faces

Roots of the earth and the powers that bind us all will rearrange in stasis

Blinded

Chosen to conquer and pursue

Misfortune falls on the absent-minded

Broken from all that we've been through

We wander with no guidance

I will stabilize in equilibrium
