Polaris - Sonder lyrics

Look at yourself Narrow of mind, shallow of breath So far removed from the plight So far removed from the d**h of your kin, down-trodden and ill Oh so high as you stood, how heavy you fell As so many will fall for the bait, compa**ion too little, too late For some small peace of mind How can you walk on the bones of your brothers’ broken homes Knowing how karma’s cold hand grips at your throat? I’ve been trapped beneath the soil and the dirt Do I close my eyes? Do I close my eyes? Lying still beneath the burden and the hurt Am I dead inside? Did I make it right? Left in the dark, in blackest oblivion Only forced me to learn that light comes from within And only fades where fear prevails Where is your heart? Does it grow weaker each time you think of those you scorned from afar? Their voices rise from the wreck to call you by name The blood that tarnished the brush will mark us the same What have we done? What have we done? Can you fight this, can you fight this alone and abandoned? Look where we’ve landed and know This must all have a consequence Nothing, nothing will make sense again You’ll never rest peacefully You’ll never rest peacefully You’ll never rest peacefully You cowards, you cowards, you left them for dead Left them out in the cold, they said You liars, backstabbers, sold out your own kind I can’t turn a blind eye, can’t rewind
