What would you die for?
The perfect war?
The end result of peace once the blood shed stops?

What would you live for?
Tomorrow, if you knew tomorrow was a long way away?

Living a life walking on glass makes you tread carefully,
The glass ceiling has cracks that begin to form;
Spiderweb tracks caused by the weight of sobering thoughts.

Would you die for the perfect day?
Would you sacrifice for tomorrow if you knew tomorrow was a long way away.

Would you give all you are now so that futures you'll never see would thrive?

What would you die for?
What would you stand for?

Spent a year walking in someone's shoes
Only to have forgotten who you were before the journey even started.

Homeward bound and out again, watching the world pass you by.

The crime rate keeps moving as the nation teeters on the verge of social change.

Where do you stand?

How do you fight?

Would you die if you knew the future would be secured?
Are you selfless in death?
Are you more than yourself, can you muster the courage to move beyond?

What would you die for?

Are you the martyr of today?

What would you stand for?
Where is the line that you draw?

Would you die, if you knew tomorrow would be bright?

Would you die for the perfect war?

Would you live for the way things are now?
