You and me, we're the same

Asking for more

More than the numbing existence

Offered us all



What did they say? What did they do?

To make you crawl back in

Despite everything that you've been through

You're still right here

Where I left you



We can lift up our heads to the sky

Find all of those strings that they're pulling

And keep from falling back

Into our old rhythmic poses

Turning us into machines



And one of these days, we'll no longer betray

Ourselves in any way

We won't all look the same way down

And one of these days, we'll no longer betray

Ourselves in any way

And we'll all take the same way out



And all these illusions

Dropped on a sea of believers

Crowding around as they hunt me down

And throw me out

While all the rest of the others

Bang their heads in the trenches



And one of these days, we'll no longer betray

Ourselves in any way

We won't all look the same way down

And one of these, days we'll no longer betray

Ourselves in any way

And we'll all take the same way out



So don't give up on me

We can be still pretend

This is all just a game

That'll work itself out in the end
