we are to be something here again
to play soldiers now, pretend
born inside these endless halls of shame
jaded by the error-ways of man
it doesn't make us strong
the things that i find stranger here
will not let us in
show me, i won't tell
and even if i go today
i won't understand
we are to be something we are not
to repeat our faults my friend
taken down from sanity's lonely heights
shown the downward spiral ways of man
it doesn't make us strong
the things that i find stranger here
will not let us in
no, they will not let us in
show me i won't tell
'cause even if i die today
i won't understand
