They are the ones without heart They tear our families apart Where will we end up from here (Where will we end up from here) We are the ones they choose To die because of our roots But what if they'd try To walk a mile in our boots Every step we take Leads us further together But every choice they make Will take us closer forever Every step we take Leads us further together But every choice they make Will take us closer forever We roam this empty cage From thick to thin we march the stage A decade of gray and rust We are the ones they turn to dust We are the ones they turn to dust We are without reproach Yet were the ones they accuse They call us traitors And we have nothing to choose They chain us like dogs And put us to work A life we are forced Come on just do your worst Just do your worst We are the ones they turn to dust Every step we take Leads us further together But every choice we make Will take us closer forever Oh we have lost so much Feels like you're tightening my rope But one thing is clear We haven't lost our hope We roam this empty cage From thick to thin we march the stage A decade of gray and rust We are the ones they turn to dust We roam this empty cage From thick to thin Can't climb these fences no more A decade of gray and rust We are the ones they turn to dust
