An ageless question, universal, they're askin' why
Creation destined cries flood the night in pain
They say, if You are real then take it away
But man, will only look to You lyin' on his face
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget)
There cries, this agony, injustices, suffering
Symptoms of a larger disease inside of me and you and me
Try to close you eyes and make it fade away
But open and you'll see this stain is you, this stain is me
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes)
Now so many wonder why it is
So much has gone awry in all of this
And being makes you sigh that you exist
But you can't escape this
Seemingly undeserved is your lot
But generations past and you forgot
We chose to eat our fill and fell to not
This pain is here reminding us to turn
And leave to come back home
Pointing to show us the way
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
Now we lie awake
(Shut eyes, so to forever forget this)
