why do you torture me so you sit across the table with both eyes closed you speak in myth and fable and stand unopposed the animal bones reveal themselves from deep within your mane they reach for ethereal light the ancient spears rise from her shoulders and riddle your frame marking the first time it was done right and thats not all that haunts me the death by fire of a child who waits so patiently and we are the ones who set the standard by which we are to be measured measured measured some things can never walk again cause sometimes a step is all too vile the path of five innocent men who are only capable of walking one last mile if i could live another day over again id choose not to the successes and failures of days passed are constant the horizon promises days ahead if you wont quit then i wont and this i swear to you tonight upon these former embers you fanned until they were fire we are nothing without the thousands of voices that make the choir nothing without the thousands of voices that make the choir we are we are we are still life we are we are we are still life begging and pleading not dying but bleeding out begging and pleading not dying but bleeding out oh the chemical reaction the chemical oh the chemical reaction when the walls fell with arms wide
