I hear your words
So bored and stale
So preconceived
They make me dumber
Walk to the edge
With grace and poise
Without a hand
To use for comfort
Jump off the ledge
Without the noise
Without a plan
From land to thunder
And if I die on these streets
At least I'll die on my feet
At least I won't be asleep
How can you sleep?
After we've seen what we've seen
My eyes are open
And I don't sleep anymore
Can you still dream?
After we've seen what we've seen
My heart is broken
Now I don't sleep anymore
So quaint and warm
To hear the sounds
1000 likes
Of white like minded
That life was old
So status quo
The fear moved in
To keep things quiet
We've lost our bold
To stand and show
We know it's sin
I'm off to find it
And if I die on these streets
At least I'll die on my feet
At least I won't be asleep
How can you sleep?
After we've seen what we've seen
My eyes are open
And I don't sleep anymore
Can you still dream?
After we've seen what we've seen
My heart is broken
Now I don't sleep anymore
Are you listening?
Or are you numb like me?
"Is no one pure of heart" He asked
And we all said "not one"
I didn't hold the gun
But I didn't help the young
And that is why I see my hands still stained with blood
How can you sleep?
After we've seen what we've seen
My eyes are open
And I don't sleep anymore
Can you still dream?
After we've seen what we've seen
My heart is broken
Now I don't sleep anymore
