Who is left after the chaos
We forget what happened to us
No-one's there to stand by your side
And it's got me thinking
And it's got me thinking
Why
Why do we let them take control
Nothing is left but anecdotes
Of the fire that burned
Something has been on my mind
There's nothing to do except waste your time
On all the little things that annoy us so very much (on all the little things that annoy us)
And it's got me dreaming (of a better world, of a better self)
Why
Why do we let them take control
Nothing is left but anecdotes
Of the fire once burning, hurting, hearts are yearning for more
We know, but
Who is left after betrayal
I don't feel comfortable
They say I'm cynical
But who am I to disagree
With the way the public speaks to me
Why do we let them take control
Nothing is left but anecdotes
Of the fire that burned, hurt, twisted curse, worse than ever before
I know, but
