[Verse 1]
Time left alone
The pity that follows us all here
What's right or wrong?
Been buried so long
The guilty and innocent come here
To wash all the blood away
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm running out
I'm holding out for more
The seconds burn
And God gives up
[Chorus]
All we know
We're just the passengers
Living our arrogant lives
For all we know
Selfish and cynical
Killing the messenger
It's all that we know
[Verse 2]
We waited so long
The emptiness under it all
Where did we go wrong?
The ignorant soul
Cannot come to find out we die here
We drown in the blood today
[Pre-Chorus]
We're dying out
And rotten to the core
The faithless turn
And God gives up
[Chorus]
All we know
We're just the passengers
Living our arrogant lives
For all we know
Selfish and cynical
Killing the messenger
It's all that we know
[Bridge]
The killing words of hope
Only make us feel we're all so alone
Somehow, it seems unreal
But it's all we know
[Pre-Chorus]
Time left alone
The ignorant soul
We waited so long
We'll die here alone
[Chorus]
All we know
We're just the passengers
Living our arrogant lives
For all we know
Selfish and cynical
Killing the messenger
It's all that we know
All we know
We're just the passengers
Living our arrogant lives
For all we know
Selfish and cynical
Killing the messenger
It's all that we know
