A Quiet Anthem

There will come a time
This life you live
Will catch up to you
And no one will be left

When honesty is blind
In ignorance exists the fallen
We're begging for the truth

Night comes and shadows fall
The lights appear
Across the city
I wonder where you are

The words you say are false
There is no compromise
No absolution
On bloody knees I crawl

Why can't you hear me?
I'm screaming without words
I am just sitting here
Waiting for you
Waiting for you
To come home

I finally resign
I chose to cut the ties
And stop the bleeding
I will not be condemned

It comes as no surprise
You are what everyone said
The masses have spoken
For once they do not lie

Why can't you hear me?
I'm screaming without words
I am just sitting here
Waiting for you
Waiting for you
To come home

Say goodbye to the one who's subordinate to the weak
Say goodbye to your fear and you finally will be free
And it will go
And it will go
