you won't understand that every struggle makes us stronger it's just another distraction but it's something in the way we're avoiding destruction only barely you won't bend or break when every second takes us farther into a world of malfunction but we do it anyway wind us up watch us run this world that you will break lay awake every minute every hour all the time you waste I can't wait to get away from a state of expectation to a sweet escape you will never know me i was built to seize the day show me nothing that could make me stay there’s nothing left I can't believe all the time I've spent on these worthless thoughts wishing that I'd never found them we'll fight the expectations we're more than simple minded patients in your ward when running to salvation we may fall to see there's nothing left for us with all the trees gone dry there's nothing left but time with all the trees gone dry there's nothing left but time we killed the world can you see? can you see? with no regard who are we? who are we? the same let you down won't comply take your crown the same let you down won't comply now's the time for us our day never let me our cause this debt will hold me down a freedom lost in this paradox it's a trap to make me drown burn me live yeah you might as well you won't understand that every struggle makes us stronger it's just another distraction but it's something in the way we're avoiding destruction only barely you won't bend or break when every second takes us farther into a world of malfunction but we do it anyway wind us up watch us run this world that you will break and I will lay awake with the choices I have made and do we stand for change? if we made the buildings up so tall than we can burn down and rebuild it all let the people light the fire we're all so sick of segregation we'll have the chance to make a better generation with all the trees gone dry there's nothing left but time with all the trees gone dry there's nothing left but time the same let you down won't comply take your crown the same let you down won't comply take your crown now's the time for us now's the the time for us it's a moment in our lives we can try to be better to be something new something new let the people light the fire with all the building coming down and the king has lost his crown what a pity the death of a liar let the people light the fire let them rebuild
