I opened up my eyes this morning, Blinded by the fire pouring in. All the whispers, All the promises, Of the things we could have been. She said a prayer for me this morning, Opened up her veins and drifted out, Beginning this ending story, Breathing in a tidal wave of doubt. You see, we're free to worship different gods, And tell ourselves the other's wrong. We load our guns and fly our flags, And kill each other, kill each other. Can our kind hope to survive, When reason holds no place of power? Bow our heads, we stand in line, To kill each other, kill each other.
