Permanent Lyrics

We found our way out of it
Every time before
But something's different
In spite of our efforts now
It seems to take more
And we see less
But we continue to do the same things
Hoping for change
So now we're finding out the hardest way
Our work is in vain

Because this is not a test
This is permanent
And there is no beyond right now
This is the consequence
When we choose to blind ourselves
We're the determinant
Because this is not a test
This is permanent
We fought ourselves out of it
Every time before
But we're no different
Despite our best efforts
Now it always takes more
Than we have left

But we continue to do the same things
Hoping for change
So now we're finding out the hardest way
Our work is in vain

Because this is not a test
This is permanent
And there is no beyond right now
This is the consequence
When we choose to blind ourselves
We're the determinant
Because this is not a test
This is permanent
Because this is not a test
This is permanent
And there is no beyond right now
This is the consequence
When we choose to blind ourselves
We're the determinant
Because this is not a test
This is permanent
