[Verse 1]
Within isolation
Controlled and made blind
Weathered desolation, is wiped from our eyes
As I speak I begin to find belief
Powers in between
Reach for me
[Chorus]
We refuse to live, only sparing breath
We’re caged in silence
We will soon begin
Bringing forth the end, to all this madness
Hold me, high above the rest
We speak through defiance!
We refuse to live, in this pattern of death
Return the violence
[Bridge/Chorus]
We refuse to live only sparing breath
We're caged in silence
We will soon begin
Bringing forth the end to all this madness
Hold me high above the rest
We speak through defiance
Hold me high above the rest
We speak through defiance
[Verse 2]
You’re built out of lies
We will not live caged in silence
Deception contrived
We will not rest, we are the defiant
Rise, out of the rust, out of the wreckage
Built out of lies, born of the flies in despair
[Chorus]
We refuse to live, only sparing breath
We’re caged in silence
We will soon begin
Bringing forth the end, to all this madness
Hold me, high above the rest
We speak through defiance!
We refuse to live, in this pattern of death
Return the violence
[Breakdown]
Rise!
