the calming warmth of a golden sky
brings dreams to roaming minds and tears to weathered eyes
the child quickly grows and gets wise to the word insanity
in time it may be told that we destroyed what was left of humanity
give it up, give it up, whatever this is that i've got.
make a toast with an empty cup, here's to the kings and the cowards
and when we're suffering, suffering, i'll say i'm sorry but i'm not
what would you do with your final hour?
with eyes unfazed
we'll watch the cities we built set ablaze.
we'll find, when they fall, we burnt our own prison walls
for a day only dreams will recall
the latent king with too much pride
the coward's selfish glance, from the shadows where they hide.
but when they bring the gavel down, i don't expect anyone will understand
but things will come around and give the bravest of us a second chance.
knuckle down, knuckle down, a retribution so sublime.
here i stand with my feet on the ground and my head in the rafters.
generate, generate, the rebellion of our time.
the story's ending, whatever ever after.
with eyes unfazed
we'll watch the cities we built set ablaze.
we'll find, when they fall, we burnt our own prison walls
for a day only dreams will recall
golden sunshine, a soothing summer breeze.
wasting time while kings and cowards built our dreams.
are you happy?
with eyes unfazed
we'll watch the cities we built set ablaze.
