Breathe in
Open your eyes
Lift your head
Take off your disguise

Pretend today
is more than just a day
Let's say
it won't just pass away

We cried
inside
for we know we lied
and we can't hide
that we've lost the fight

There is no battle, the war is won
the fight is done,
we see the sun
glint off our guns

Take a seat,
now, helpless at the feet
of time, and eat
her supple fruit, the cause for your defeat.

Circles spin and pass
you cannot win if your loss plays back
no victory will last.

Watching the sun
fall below the ground
Replace your mask
and Breathe out
