GD Felt a tremor stir beneath my breath That forecasts storms on the gallup poll CGD Woke up from the nightmare news Hoping to read a sign in the morning air
GD Nothing changes here and nothing improves All say my friends who just want out CGD And leave these troubles behind Scatter like paper in the eye of the storm Documented with a silenced note That's only heard from far, far away GD CGD GD More cards in play, following suit Everywhere you look, you only see red CGD Wonder when to call off the race Watching a horse running down its last legs Just when you think it couldn't get much worse Watch the numbers rise on the death toll And the chimes of freedom flash and fade Only heard from far, far away BDG BD GB I hear you can't trust in your own Now the grey is broken in the early morn And the words forming barely have a voice It's just your heart that's breaking without choice
Everything you've learned is distorted in your head Bouncing off the walls, unraveling the thread Staying up with the blue screen glow Forgetting everything you ever dreamed years ago
When the dread is flowing down my veins I want to tear it all down and build it up again Tear it all and build it up again Hear your heart that's breaking without choice I want to hear those chimes ring again Ring again
