[Chorus 3]
Is this what the resurrection feels like?
Is this just what the resurrection feels like
From the other side, from the other side, from the other side?

[Chorus 2]
Is this what the resurrection feels like?
Is this what the resurrection feels like
From the other side, from the other side, from the other side?
[Outro]
The lighter the fiction, the louder the sound
We'll all hear the roar when the walls hit the ground
