Protect This City - Alive Lyrics

My heart is screaming
There is nothing left inside of me
I have no words in my mouth
I am crawling, breathless
Faces i used to know
I don't recognize them now

We've built the walls around ourselves
Open your eyes and look at this f*cking mess
Our dreams had gone with the last tide
Our blindness has enslaved us

There is no fire left inside those crusts
And we just want to feel alive
The things we've loved the most have passed away
And we just want to feel alive

Now we have to take a deep breath
The question is 'should we dive and try to rescue everything'
You just need to look back and choose your side
Do you want to feel alive?

Embrace the fate open the gate
Bring the flame to the last standing mainstay
Just hear my calls bury the walls
Reach for the skies and scream:
'There is nothing left inside of me'
Open your eyes now
Do you like what you see

We forgot how beautiful our lives were
We forgot how much we actually had
We are losing our time on those f*cking wars
We are trying to prove that we are gods

There is no fire left inside those crusts
And we just want to feel alive
The things we've loved the most have passed away
And we just want to feel alive
