[Verse]

Our ears our ringing

With a sound so curious

Resonates reason in our brains

A trace of treason flowing through our veins

We're singing

Our voices furious

Fueled by the fire in our hearts

But ruled by salaries and shopping carts

We say this

For those oblivious

When tides rise higher than before

And when the suns aren’t shining anymore

Betray this

Sense of remorse for us

We never felt quit like this

Since ignorance is bliss we'll think this isn't real

[Chorus]

We weren’t ready for this existence or its consequences

This world's a twisted place within us

We bite more than we can chew

Indulgences instead of values

Have become what we wanted

We wanted everything

[Verse]

The names of angels

Held less notorious

Than names of evil men in vests

In mobs in gangs who slay the innocent

Our children

Shall hold them glorious

And don their faces on their walls

And find them places on their pedestals

A future

Far from victorious

Is likely what we're headed for

Unless we learn to live for something more

The answer

So much more obvious

Than why the moth flies to the flame

And why we're dancing while we're lame and falling over

[Chorus]

We weren't ready for this existence or its consequences

This world's a twisted place within us

We bite more than we can chew

Indulgences instead of values

Have become what we wanted

We wanted everything
