Born are we into this wonderful dream.
But oblivious we are of the screams
Just take some time and look around
You'll see the souls who drown
Under the weight of all their thoughts

Quiet! listen, please, just once
This noise is overbearing
It's all too much, can't we see that?
We had it all, but we killed him
And still he saw it fit to save us.

Poor wretched beings that we are
Capable of so much love and trust
Yet there are those of us who
See the world from their own eyes
And they destroy, and corrupt, and taint

Still we live our lives each day
Ignorant of the wrongs we brush aside
We cower in fear from the wrath of few
So many are the common people
So silent are the many, so silent

Potential for power
Thrown away
So Silent
And patient
