500 Days--'Defiance'
Verse;
Angry at the world for not seeing what I see,
how can you not see the same wreck as me?
Born and raised on the same spinning rock,
yet we have beliefs that just don't interlock
Pre-Chorus:
Our eyes see visions so far apart,
What you ignore, I take to heart
Verse:
I look around and see a disaster,
and wonder what's to come after.
While you see everything's ordinary,
I wish I could understand how that can be?
Repeat Pre-Chorus:
Chorus:
My screamed defiance falls on deaf ears.
The damage he's doing will last for years.
Echoes of a trance is the only way
to describe your disaster play
Verse:
I've struggled to understand, but I've given up the fight,
Can't see if you're standing in eternal night
Forever divided where we used to be united,
I'm thinking long-term, your vision's short-sighted
Pre-Chorus:
You're only thinking what's in it for me,
to make yourself feel better, normal's what you see
Repeat Chorus:
