We are the children of the innocent And we are born to fail Born into a world so broken How can we begin to rebuild The things we will endure Building a nation up With bare hands The blood stains on our knees Tell the story of our labor To bring you up in our words To listen to these songs How lonely is a world where everyone is blind How quiet is a world where everyone is deaf How lonely is a world where everyone is blind How quiet is a world where everyone is deaf We are only concerned with ourselves We are never content our eyes are always hungry We are never content our ears are always yearning Restless and lost the wicked never stop I will look down at the world Through the eyes of a mad man Ill try to assemble the puzzles of this world The blood stains on our knees tell the story of our labor To bring you up in our words to listen to these songs How lonely is a world where everyone is blind How quiet is a world where everyone is deaf How lonely is a world where everyone is blind How lonely is a world where everyone is dead
