A Sweet Demise

[Verse 1]
How can they all stay sane?
When they know it's too late
When they know what we've heard
All of those words
That they sang
Hiding from the guiding light
Narrowly escaping watchful eyes
Running through a rocky slope
Hoping for a quiet, sweet demise

[Chorus]
Haven't you seen I'm not in control?
My mind has went through one-way gates
I don't know if I am seeing the whole
Picture but I hope it's something great
Haven't you seen I'm not in control?
My mind has went through one-way gates
I don't know if I am seeing the whole
Picture but I hope it's something great

[Verse 2]
I'm following the higher ones
Seeing all the things that they've done
They're like a flower beneath the stones
Of ice and hardened bones
They're the brave ones of this world
And I hope one day my courage will
Be strong and free like a bird
'Cause they're the ones that made me sure
And of my indecisiveness, cured

[Chorus]
Haven't you seen I'm not in control?
My mind has went through one-way gates
I don't know if I am seeing the whole
Picture but I hope it's something great

[Outro]
What's the big deal?
Why are we scared?
Revealing our faces, our voices, our
Closest fears
Oh who cares?
