Dead Men Walking

Cast aside the mask and all the false hope
Trapped in a cage and caged in a loop
Doomed to come alive and cursed to lose it all
So we change, evolve, forget
We wear masks so that we'll never need to care, never need to mend the broken homes
The whole planet stood back and shook, afterward the rain came down
Answers unanswered cause questions unasked
The light faced away from earth
Nothing but machines, Dead men walking
Day by day, weeks to weeks, month by month and years to years
I will waste this life, never looking back
I've given up a thousand times
And I'll give up countless more
Because we've been misled, told and taught that our lives are valueless, meaningless
Now we figure out that there's no way out
Sometimes we forget
All those everlasting dreams are nowhere to be found, we've all given up
