We’re staring into a cold world – it’s eyes
Looking back at us through this disguise
We’re running away from the fear – inside
Killing the hopeless so we can feed our pride
Mind open, tongue tied / what will it take to stop this reprise
we’re burning the hatred so deep – into
the very ones we promised the solace to
to tell them it will be all right today
before the bullet takes them away
mind open, tongue tied / what will it take to stop this reprise
heart closes, the light dies / what will it take to end our demise
burning the hatred / breaking the promise
why don’t you tell them / the bullet’s waiting
stop all your lies / we don’t need a reprise
or look into a cold world’s eyes / right before it dies
