lyrics

Behold another tragedy.
We turn our heads and don’t allow ourselves to see the truth.
We are part of the problem and part of the answer.
To rid this cancer from society, we must find unity.

Because it is a broken system and we are broken men.
But when compassion starts and anger ends we can live again.

Take a journey with me and surely you will see that these times, they are changing.
And we are through with the waiting.
The wait for the rise, for all we despise to falter and fade.

We wait for the day.

Ignorance is not bliss when it’s malevolent.
There must be some way to break the trend.

We must draw the line.
This will pass with time.
The constant need for opposition is ammunition for an endless fight.

We are all the same on one level or another.
Still we willfully allow ourselves to cause others to suffer.
What can we do to warm the coldest hearts?
The wheels of time move too slow and only so far.

Because it is a broken system and we are broken men.
But when compassion starts and anger ends we can live again.

Take a journey with me and surely you will see that these times, they are changing.
And we are through with the waiting.
The wait for the rise, for all we despise to falter and fade.
We wait for the day.
