LYRICS BY NICK PALMER; COMPOSED BY

We hold the question in our hearts
Repeat it every day
We long to choose our path
But often lose our way
We yearn for the next dawn
Lost in dreaming
Forever wait to be reborn
It’s why we wake up screaming
It’s hard to see the track
Tomorrow looks so black
We search for reasons why
Consult the empty sky
Who am I? What am I?
Is this the life I’m meant to lead?
If I am - why am I?
Why do I burn, why do I bleed?
No meaning, uncovered
Cry out forever
We join as one and sing our
Songs of a broken future
No answers, discovered
We stand together
Forever bound to sing our
Songs of a broken future
The world is set afire
For selfish dark desire
Our time is running short
Our final battles fought
We struggle, we suffer
For grasping hands to take it all
Corruption, dishonour
Condemned to toil until we fall
Unequal, unending
This ground we cover
Our voices raised aloud in
Songs of a broken future
This one life, descending
We have no other
The sand it slips away to
Songs of a broken future
Who are we? What are we?
Is this the life we’re meant to lead?
If we are - why are we?
Why do we burn, why do we bleed?
No meaning, discovered
Cry out forever
We join as one and sing our
Songs of a broken future
No answer, uncovered
We stand together
Forever bound to sing our
Songs of a broken future
