Lights Are Going Out

(album: Free Fall - 2013)

The city lights are going out
But everyone is awake
The clouds above is hiding what we're waiting for
There's a child, she stands alone
She's gazing up at the sky
She says the thing you call democracy was just a lie

We're all informed what we could change
To leave a world that still makes sense
Instead we choose to die of ignorance

The marching sound across the street
It trembles over this land
With naked feet on broken glass she makes a stand
And the fire rains around her head
She's staring into the end
The thing we called humanity is finally dead

When the city lights are going out
And when it comes to an end
By broken dreams, by fucked up teens
Of ignorance
When the last of us will disappear
Like shadows into the night
The broken ones, the fighting sons
Of ignorance

They're rolling in with waving guns
With medals pinned to their chest
They talk about a greater cause
Like all the rest
And I see a man with shiny boots
He's visions given by god
And like a dog you lick his hand
Just like he planned

We're all informed what we could change
To leave a world that still makes sense
Instead we choose to die of ignorance

When the city lights are going out
And when it comes to an end
By broken dreams, by fucked up teens
Of ignorance
When the last of us will disappear
Like shadows into the night
The broken ones, the fighting sons
Of ignorance

Does anyone even care why we're fighting
But we blame it all on everybody else
Does anyone even care why we're fighting
But we blame it all on everybody else

When the city lights are going out
And when it comes to an end
By broken dreams, by fucked up teens
Of ignorance
Cause we'll cover roots like falling trees
Like crumble leaves in the wind
When lights are going out in the end
