Under a blanket of fear Down a bottomless pit I've been waiting for this night To open my eyes Wide awake I see in the dark See the fences breaking apart Get together with my old friends Once again we breathe in the air Escape to somewhere far from nowhere Where the sky's been tainted red Where the sky's been tainted Up on a bank by a stream Trading memories for dreams Fading echoes and pictures Oh, we burn at the seams Wide awake I see in the dark See the fences breaking apart Get together with my old friends Once again we breathe in the air Escape to somewhere far from nowhere Where the sky's been tainted red Where the sky's been tainted And now our wings are painted gold They'll make idols of us yet Empty promises they sold Reach their best before dates soon I can see it all I can see it all I can see it all I can see it all
