from the fields that are burnt down we came with nothing but seeds of hope you drank the rain, the rain out of the clouds and left a thousand with dry throats we are the riot we are the starving ones we've kept quiet now for far too long we are the riot we are the starving ones we've kept quiet now for far too long this is a call to the dissatisfied we are the riot we are the starving ones we've kept quiet now for far too long this is a call to the dissatisfied from the moment we broke free from these ties that were meant to keep us where you'd watch, you'd watch our strains we new the seeds would shoot up again we are the riot we are the starving ones we've kept quiet now for far too long this is a call to the dissatisfied

where is your hope now did you lose it on your way down will you find it back where you go back where you go now i'm on my back and i've lost all feeling from my waist down trying to forget i'm trying to forget the day i jumped cause my head was in the clouds the world seemed easy and its easy now cause i'm trying to walk i swear i'm trying to walk to find new hope but i keep falling down so where would you go would you try to climb the way back (up) into the clouds or would you start running towards sundown chasing light and warmth that's not your own you will stay right here cause silence is the teacher that you need your heart is full of hopeful words but you've never heard it speak learn to listen (learn to listen) it speaks of hope learn to listen (learn to listen) and you will now learn to listen (learn to listen) it speaks of hope learn to listen (learn to listen) its with us wherever we go learn to listen (learn to listen) it speaks of hope learn to listen (learn to listen) and you will know its in us, it guides us its with us wherever we go its in us, it guides us so we don't have to be alone don't move lights out

if only we could push our finger right through the glass to reach the face of the man that stares back at us we feel nothing a cold touch, consuming life we keep watching until he shuts his eyes were still standing with our hand raised with our fingertips on his face take time, realize that hes inside, that hes inside, hes inside discover discover yourself discover yourself, you've come to find help but does he know what you need now can he hear just a word that you shout out these lips they move to still-born sound his hands seek hold, as he breaks down such a beautiful frame, such a beautiful frame to decorate an image of shame if only we could push our finger right through the glass to reach the face of the man that stares back at us we feel nothing a cold touch, consuming life we keep watching until he shuts his eyes

thank god its bedtime we try to rest, windows barred and eyes shut dim the light, dim the light now or never we beg sleep to find us to the sound of our heartbeat we watch pictures flicker on the back of our skin colors swallow thoughts, swallow time tucks us in tucks us in the fever the fever the fever burns its way right through our veins follows us deeper the fever the fever the fever keeps us restless colors swallow thoughts, swallow time we wont find peace tonight dim the light, dim the light, dim the light will we awake in a better dream or just the same sickening scenery is it the suns morning-heat we feel or just the fever ending our sleep when slowly we open our eyes we see we've never been outside this door has been locked though its missing its key were still alive but we forgot how to breath

Out there 04:09
there is a place we know it keeps treasures we demand we made haste to come but we've only come this far we've been crying and screaming fighting and dreaming kissing the walls with our eyes to see whats inside we try to get in but someones blocking the way clenched fists that strike him but we feel blood in our face we try to get in but someone's blocking the way we will keep fighting until we see we are the warden we are the warden we are the warden we face only ourselves, only ourselves we are the hand that's pushing us back we own the eye that's black from the fist we'll throw next we are the battle we are the ring we are the battle we are the ones watching its time to give him hell

Alone 02:39
whenever we feel like it, we will feel like shit fighting the urge to resist it we know we could be happier more and more and more and more the less we care but its not who we are we not a afraid of the darkness makes us feel that our heart has not stopped beating yet stopped beating yet beating yet we walk out of this light hand our hearts to the night we walk alleys we have never had the guts to walk before between unease, fear and distress there's no good without bad and boy bad times are our fuel to hope again again and again bravery is confidence's child

now we're in the water on top of the tide rising up to the walls keeping the lost behind boulders with the weight to persist carried away by the flood hold us as we reach for their grip desperate to keep them up open your eyes, the surface will reside keep your head dry, your world has been drowned to be revived you're not abandoned just keep afloat you're not abandoned you're on the way back home we know the waves will carry us home we lie awake above a world we've known we know the waves will carry us home so keep your head dry, open your eyes now we're not abandoned we'll keep afloat we're not abandoned we're on our way back home we're not abandoned we'll keep afloat we're not abandoned we're going home we're going home and as we're still kicking underwater certain we forgot the sense of solid soil this perception hits us out of nowhere we see the ground, we feel it now

where is the ocean we were promised to see where is the water they said would be sweet who said its dreams that we need and who said its worthless what we dream we paint new worlds we never saw we write lines unread before sing melodies without sheets can't we live life born from these dreams cause our head can be the ocean and we are the boat set sails for new directions nobody knows and you say you know and you've read those things about how they saw that someone heard how it must be oh it must feel like something you're not sure it's all worthless all worthless you know you're the vessel that has never felt water on its bow it is dark out there, unexpected, and yet somehow familiar the water is only as deep as our wishes and the boat only as strong as our will we choose the kind of our travel knowing that discoverers discover after all landmarks got out of sight we are the ocean we were promised to see we are the water we will drink cause its sweet we know we know it is dreams that we need its all worthless its all worthless if you have never dreamed

Home 02:56
we're out on a boat only to call it home far out in the cold burning its pieces
