If you don't want me to be right,
I can't give in and be wrong
I am weak, maybe so
But what have you achieved
by being strong ?
This hand of love,
May not stand against your storm
But i must not thirst your blood,
Like you do for mine
Or these wounds won't heal
Till the end of time
But you'll never hear me,
All you've ever heard
Is a battle song,
And our scars have stretched on
Between the space,
for far too long.
We're the same,
You and me
Then why is it so hard,
for you to love me?
We live the same pain
Why not the same love
All we need is us,
To heal 'tis broken world.
Be blind to the seen,
Deaf to the screams
As you feed your own brothers,
To the **** machine.
If you can't see me,
Doesn't mean I'm blind
What will it take,
To leave every scar behind
For it'll always rust,
beneath the surface
We'll be turned to dust
And one day we'll both fade
Consumed by our ignorance,
Ignorance always fed our hate
Always ready to inflict war,
In the blank of every page
To remind us of our vengeance,
The misplaced sense of righteousness
What will you find,
In the annihilation of my soul
Your emptiness?
We're the same,
You and me
Then why is it so hard,
for you to love me?
We live the same pain
Why not the same love
All we need is us,
To heal 'tis broken world.
Be blind to the seen,
Deaf to the screams
As you feed your own brothers,
To the **** machine.
If you don't love me
Is it too much to ask,
Not to hate
How far will you last,
Before your monsters
Turn on you instead
I'm no saint,
But I'll still take your bait
To follow your lead,
And break down the walls you made
Douse myself in your flavour,
To taste your shade
Live in your nightmare
And find my self awake
Would you feel the same,
If i wanted an eye for eye
Would you
Then love me,
If i wanted a partition in the sky ?
We're the same,
You and me
Then why is it so hard,
for you to love me?
We live the same pain
Why not the same love
All we need is us,
To heal 'tis broken world.
Be blind to the seen,
Deaf to the screams
As you feed your own brothers,
To the **** machine.
