The Dying Race

Lovers, forget that things can be so bad Brothers, take your turn at being sad Mothers, save us from the worlds true face Fathers, teach us why we have to hate Stranger, why do you always seem to hide? Danger, I sense it every time you lie Your mask is wearing you It saves you from all that's true Nothing can seem to change Our lives are all the same It seems we can not rearrange No one can ever hold the blame Use us, it seems that it is all you do Lose us, I now know that I use you too It seems that there is no way through Our lies are spread, we're doomed Nothing will ever change Our lives are all the same We can never rearrange No one can ever hold the blame Look up, stop ignoring what's out there Grow up, just choose the reasons why you care Our lives are one, why can't you see? Your bitterness will stop us from being Soon we will just cease to be We die the second we're not free
