lyrics

Birds losing will falling from the sky.
What has a purpose is crumbling by.
Hidden weakness all exposed, I can't speak.
All the normal state of things, end in grief.
Feet planted down on a shifting earth.
My body thrown like it has no worth.
We are so confused with a constant clash.
History has carved out a brand new path.
Ships sinking down in the full moon light.
They had a method but now it's outa sight.
Why is this happening it makes no sense?
I can feel a hopelessness, on the rise

Falling all a part.
All that we take for granted is hard to see.
What is it about?
Oh is it really gonna be all right?

Don't tell me it is gonna be all right!

How stable is the mind, in crisis?
Heed all the warning signs and avoid, falling all apart.
All that we take for granted is hard to see.
What is it about?
Oh is it really gonna be all right?

Don't tell me it is gonna be all right!

Birds losing will falling from the sky.
What has a purpose is crumbling by.
Hidden weakness all exposed, I can't speak.
All the normal state of things, end in grief.

Am I dreaming, why is it so real?
When will I go to sleep and heal?
Am I dreaming, why is it so real?
When will I go to sleep and heal?
