Why does it always come to this?
Through all the open doors we sit and wait.
For the moment to come.
Hiding behind our souls so afraid,
Of what we will be,
Our lives slowly changing.
No need for conscious choices to be made.
Flowing from your mind open the gate.
I just wanna feel alive.
Can you feel what we all feel?
Desire.
Want you to be a part of what is inside of me.
Just for tonight can we be more than just a heartbeat?
And more than just the air we breathe?
I can see the future burning brighter than the sun.
The flares of what is pending are what I plan to become.
You know we’re all the same inside and I've reached,
A point in my life where something has to give me all it is harboring.
I want to see you opening the walls that keep you inside.
In here there is no place to hide.
I can see the future burning brighter than the sun.
The flares of what is pending are what I plan to become.
What are you waiting for?
Blow up the system, it’s your time.
Live for today and you will find there’s nothing left to hide.
