Lyrics

I can't blame you, and I can't save you
 But I will try
 For you and I, for you and I
 I won't find out all the dirty little things that you've done
 But I will try
 I—I'm coming for you giants and you liars and your chariots of fire
 You charmers with your anecdotes have started to show your true colors
 Now I'm staring at the moon wondering why the bottom fell out
 I've been searching for answers and there's questions I've found
 Open your eyes and share this burden somehow
 Are you ready to drink
 Or are you waiting to drown?
 I would break you
 Before I let you fall into the blind
 For you and I, for you and I
 I will breathe in all the truth I can stomach
 If it keeps you alive
 We've changed the dreamers and the preachers and the wise men on the hill
 To concrete stepping smilers terrified to lose their power and control
 Yeah we've been crying for a leader to speak like the old prophets
 The blood of the forgotten wasn't spilled without a purpose, or was it?
 Now I'm staring at the moon wondering why the bottom fell out
 I've been searching for answers and there's questions I've found
 Open your eyes and share this burden somehow
 Are you ready to drink
 Or are you waiting to drown?
 Yeah
 Ah—ah
 Yeah you'll never be whole, yeah you'll never be whole
 Until you lose control
 And think freely to smash the wall of apathy
 Stop your self-importance and lift the weight off somebody else
 Yeah you'll never be whole, yeah you'll never be whole
 Until you lose control
 And stop drinking the wine that's been dripping
 From the lips of the gluttons and envying their bloody teeth
 Yeah you'll never be whole, yeah you'll never be whole
 Until you lose control
