Miracle

(album: RWBY, Vol. 6 - 2019)

Time and time again, it seems
We've reached the point where all our dreams
Are crumbling all around us
Every outcome unjust
Every step it seems has led
Us further from our goal instead
Our triumphs haven't mattered
We're drifting ever backward
And we're running out of time
Nowhere near the finish line
And it's growing even clear
That a reckoning is near
And we'll have to make a choice

Is this path right?
Or is it made of lies?
We're looking in ourselves
And trusting in the light
A miracle is all we need
But there isn't one in sight

Each and every passing day
Our world's in further disarray
Confidence descending
Where's our happy ending?
On the path, but, still, we strayed
Our aspirations quickly fade
Desperation's rising
On hopeless bleak horizons
Every life is on the line
Can't wait here for a sign
And just like the blood that's shed
Every cancer's sure to spread
And the time to act is short

We know inside
We're born to do what's right
Desire to preserve life
Is powering the light
We're praying for a miracle
But now, we'll stand and fight

Every plan falls apart
All of it pointless
Nothing gained, all in vain
Going down
Under stage, sinking fast
Crumbling quickly
Fear and shame, endless pain
Floundering
No hope
Abominations all around us
Blinding
Destroying every hope for justice
Still, we climb
Till we die
Our faith will be revived
The way to see the light

And our miracle
Is waiting for us
Right on the battlefield
Our miracle
Right in front of our eyes
