Deadbolt
You watched your aspirations
Laid to waste, ground up, and evaporated
Destined to be trampled and ignored
The air in the room has made them sink to the floor
Everyone is shouting for more
More shock and disbelief
Glued to the screen
Instead of finding solutions
There’s one in front of us
We’re used to devastation
A new standard of complete isolation
We are lost in our own homes
We start wandering sometimes
We are hiding from all hope
When we’re missing in our own minds
How much longer will it take to find the answers to your mistake?
We are all paying the price for them every second of every single day
The clock is counting down
Now we’ve learned you’re the time bomb
Our patience has run out
Pacing so much, we are burning holes in the planks
The flames flicker right before us
Stuck in a trance, we don’t notice them advance
They overtake the silence
We are lost in our own homes
We start wandering sometimes
We are hiding from all hope
When we’re missing in our own minds
Did the stars fail to guide your way
Circling you in infinity
Even if you follow the Sun you can go astray
It’s so hard to believe it’s happening
The warnings fell on deaf ears
But they crushed us into cowards filled with fear
Sound the alarm
We’ll sit here in silence
We aren’t safe in our own minds
Like being trapped in a living landmine
