We must bend the bars
Of these cages around our hearts
Deconstruct the confines
Of a weary existence
Smash apart the stones
Piled high upon our chests
And take in our first breaths of freedom
There is no waiting for life to come strike us
We must seek it out if we are to feel it's touch
And I resolve to seize each day
And not let go until
My hands can't hold

We must not seperate ourselves from life

Cherish and prize each breath taken upon this earth
This is our only chance
One life, and then it's over

You've just got to decide
If you'll live life on your knees
A clear choice
Between revolution and apathy
If the pain is too much,
You can look to me
I'll be there to help you up,
Up to your feet

We must forge a path
Straight through to the light
Raise ourselves up before we fade into the night

Sinking down
We are drowning in a pool of despair
Watching as our lives are wrenched away from our hands

This is the match held to the fuse
The spark that will ignite change
We'll sift through the wreckage left behind
And dance among the ruins of our prisons
