Hollowed out, we've watched months erase the memories of years

It's not tradition, not meaningless ideals

It's a fire thats draws us near

So come close, let your eyes meet mine

Try hard to deny this burning inside

Grab hold to status quo to justify

Keep telling yourself there's nothing more to life



There's so much more than killing

Than preying on insecurity

Than getting what you want no matter whose at cost

Wake up, realize your virtue is dead

Your life conviction for vanity

But we'll take this stage, never forgetting  the days 

When heart meant everything

We will take the stage, holding onto the days

When heart meant everything



This time is soon to end

And all your clothes and cliques will go with it

When the dust clears we'll see that love still stands

The love that has no shame, no fronts, no fruitless games

The love that lays life down for a friend

Your time is up
