But we are very far apart
There's bullet-holes where my compassion used to be
And there is violence in my heart
Into fire you can send us
From the fire we return
You can label us a consequence
Of how much you have to learn
You can try but you'll never understand
This is something you will never understand
Can you hear it now?
Hear it coming now?
Can you hear it now?
On hands and knees
We crawl
You cannot stop us all
Our bones, our skin
We will not let you in
You have set something in motion
Much greater than you've ever known
Standing there in all your grand naivety
About to reap what you have sown
Time will feed upon your weaknesses
And soon you'll lose the will to care
When you return to the place that you call home
We will be there, we will be there
On hands and knees
We crawl
You cannot stop us all
Our blood will stay
We will not go away
On hands and knees
We crawl
You can not stop us all
Our blood our ways
Will never leave this place
We crawl
We crawl
We crawl
We crawl
You and I, we may look the same But we are very far apart There's bullet-holes where my compassion used to be And there is violence in my heart Into fire you can send us From the fire we return You can label us a consequence Of how much you have to learn You can try but you'll never understand This is something you will never understand Can you hear it now? Hear it coming now? Can you hear it now? On hands and knees We crawl You cannot stop us all Our bones, our skin We will not let you in You have set something in motion Much greater than you've ever known Standing there in all your grand naivety About to reap what you have sown Time will feed upon your weaknesses And soon you'll lose the will to care When you return to the place that you call home We will be there, we will be there On hands and knees We crawl You cannot stop us all Our blood will stay We will not go away On hands and knees We crawl You can not stop us all Our blood our ways Will never leave this place We crawl We crawl We crawl We crawl Explain Request ×
