  • There is a darkness to the world
    Too blind to see
    You can't believe
    That your way of life is dying
    Strike at the heart of the machine
    Dispel the poison
    Kill the thieves
    The walls of Babylon are falling
    So leave me out on my own
    Out here where I belong
    Believing all you burned will live again
    We're free and standing strong
    Tear down the unknown
    Standing on our own
    Your system will be overthrown
    Your world ground into dust
    Bodies covered in ash
    Cities burned to the ground
    Your walls fall down
    So leave me out on my own
    Out here where I belong
    Believing all you burned will live again
    We're free and standing strong Writer/s: Brian Fair, Jason Bittner, Jonathan Donais, Matthew Bachand, Paul Romanko
