Lie awake at night
Still having trouble sleeping
Mind races constantly
Intrusive thoughts start creeping
The thoughts that hold us down
Remember when we used to dream
That we could become anything
Now replaced with apathy
Tragedy after tragedy
Hope is a flickering light
Weary from the wind
Joy is so fleeting and rare
When will life truly begin
Wake up time to work
It seems we’re always busy
The pressures of life
On our shoulders always heavy
You can’t hold us down
Remember when we used to dream
That we could become anything
Now replaced with apathy
Tragedy after tragedy
Hope is a flickering light
Weary from the wind
Joy is so fleeting and rare
When will life truly begin
Don’t look back
The future lies ahead
Futile as it seems
Like a distant dream
And still the struggle goes on
Striving to find what lies beyond
Despite all of this
We still carry on
Like a raging fire
Ambition burns strong
You can’t hold us down
