A world in a whisper We take the moon from the sky Tell ourselves we'll miss her and swallow our own lies Occupying this artificial light Burning holes into our vacant minds Painting each other blind We live to satisfy our own ignorence   A rising compliance to turn a blind eye For the love of silence -We are a living breathing fable in violence And who am I to be living a storm for so long I'm only human, I may be wrong But I'm not.

A world in a whisper We take the moon from the sky Tell ourselves we'll miss her and swallow our own lies Occupying this artificial light Burning holes into our vacant minds Painting each other blind We live to satisfy our own ignorence   A rising compliance to turn a blind eye For the love of silence -We are a living breathing fable in violence And who am I to be living a storm for so long I'm only human, I may be wrong But I'm not.
