We don't sleep very much
These triggers ache for the touch
Where's the strength we relied on?
Here alone, like a crutch
Maybe that's what keeps us up
All night with a light on
♪
Howling screams simulate
Lives that no longer take place
Can this be what we've become?
Paper thin, overweight
Pills to arouse or sedate
Still we don't know what we want
We can let go, can't you see?
To lose control is to be
Finally free
First a spark, then a flame, now a fire
We explode
Into the darkest of nights
Disconnect, cut the cord, lights are dead
Now they'll know
With everything comes a price
♪
And each day we are torn
Between the right and the wrong
Between life and convenience
While you sleep, while complain
There's always channels to change
It's like elective amnesia
As we grow older in this place
Let's just start over, let's erase
What they've made
First a spark, then a flame, now a fire
We explode
Into the darkest of nights
Disconnect, cut the cord, lights are dead
Now they'll know
With everything comes a price
♪
It could be minutes away
It could be hours or days
Before the bottom falls out
Before the ground gives way
Into this debt we are born
A debt we try to repay
And yet we blacken the sky
Smoke rising out of the flames
Now they'll know
