when I stare out on these vacant lots I don't think of the times we lost instead I think of the promises made that we'd survive to see better days bruised feet running empty streets blackeyes and skipped heartbeats first tries and first defeats final times and broken dreams so now I ask, are you screaming just like me? or have you resigned? asleep with complacency...(did you fall asleep?) looking out on these hollow faces skeletons haunting office spaces I'm dreaming of far off places I'm plotting my paths and packing my bags 'cause I'm never ever giving in never again (lyrics by JP Brown)
2.
step by step, fall down and we can't believe with each day dawns, and each breath drawn we suffocate beneath these lies they fight to feed me and this world that won't defeat me each hope we bear and carry on we carry on will we bend until we break left standing empty handed sold barren dreams and in the dead of night draw close, the sun will rise a new day rise and in these days when all is dark and the heartless reign and the cost of living's defeat a price paid dying on our knees in this tale of damage done it's up to us to choose the sun to turn the page to start again when this world weighs heavy on you and you've got nowhere to turn to it's the hope that survives it's got to come from inside when the dark's closing around you and you've got nothing to hold on to it's the hope that survives it's got to come from inside got to come from inside it's the hope that survives

in these numbered days I know if the clock runs out on us the curtain call, if our time is up did we wait for better days? to turn and find that it's too late did we choose to wander blind? close your eyes on borrowed time breathe in, count down the days breathe out and it's too late these desperate days pass us by we breathe, we sleep, survive, we stand by we fill our aching hearts with empty words and false starts our rage and anger fall apart but I'm not a number and I'm not the same and if we're born to suffer then I'm not the same how does it feel to know? we stood aside and watched it all go we've waited long enough, as the world burns down around us their time runs out, the time is now will you drown in regret? no I'm not the same close your eyes to forget? no I'm not the same and if it all crashes down on us I won't give in, I won't give up so if the clock runs out on us and all their promises turn to dust let's live and breathe for better days before we find that it's too late trust in what we're fighting for believe our lives mean something more breathe in, count down the days breathe out and it's too late

Lock And Key 01:31
today the sun all again lie awake in a world of dead ends where every screen, every page sells her reflections of failure and shame so she waits slave to fate in a world that counts you second rate one more day one more chain every dream dies the same when the choice is to honor, obey words leave scars, break my heart it's hard to see in a world so dark so how long must she wait? shout him down, seize your right, no mistake every chain every cage breaks the same in every silence another defeat in stares and voices endured on the street we close our eyes we turn aside while she struggles to rise, survive refuse revolt resist every chain every cage breaks the same
