Potential lies in the seeds never watered,
The future lies in the graves of the slaughtered,
A ghost of a world that could have been,
A ghost of a future that's under my skin,
Behind layers of sugarcoated lies,
That lead the unknowing to a dismal despise,
Masquerading as truths, they seal our fate,
Make us fight for our lives to be denied at the gate
They don't know we're fighting but we're in the trenches,
Trying to fix broken lives with broken wrenches,
And behind the horizon, more enemies on the way,
It won't be okay if you believe a word they say.
There are crowds and hordes of refugees,
Heartbroken and on their knees,
Yet we look upon with stray eyes,
There's no mystery great as misery,
One by one we murder chivalry,
Raise yours arms and drop your guns,
They don't know we're fighting but we're in the trenches,
Trying to fix broken lives with broken wrenches,
And behind the horizon, more enemies on the way,
It won't be okay if you believe a word they say.
Our futures begin to fade,
And warfare is the tool of the trade,
Our current state is a disgrace,
We deserve a broken wrench to the face
They don't know we're fighting but we're in the trenches,
Trying to fix broken lives with broken wrenches,
And behind the horizon, more enemies on the way,
It won't be okay if you believe a word they say.
