This is the dawning of a brand new day
Close your eyes, try to make it go away
We are what you’ve made us
We are hollow as ghosts
---
This is the turning of a new tide
We are cold, we are dead inside
Is that what you wanted?
Is this the future you planned?
---
History will never understand
Just how life and death can walk hand-in-hand
How when one man suffers we can turn away
But that’s all that’s left for the children of decay
---
These are the lies that we tell ourselves
The deep disappointment that we know so well
We are all that is left
We are marginal loss
