Time and time again, it seems
We reach the point where all our dreams
Are crumbling all around us, every outcome unjust
Every step, it seems, has led
Us further from our goal instead
Our triumphs haven’t mattered, we’re drifting ever backward
And we’re running out of time
Nowhere near the finish line
And it’s growing ever clear
That a reckoning is here
And we’ll have to make a choice
Is this path right?
Or is it made of lies?
We’re looking in ourselves
And trusting in the light
A miracle is all we need
But there isn’t one in sight
Each and every passing day
Our world’s in further disarray
Confidence descending, where’s our happy ending?
On the path, but still, we strayed
Our aspirations quickly fade
Desperation’s rising on hopeless, bleak horizons
Every life is on the line
Can’t wait here for a sign
And just like the blood that’s shed
Every cancer’s sure to spread
And the time to act is short
We know inside
We’re born to do what’s right
Desire to preserve life
Is powering the light
We’re praying for a miracle
But for now, we’ll stand and fight
Every plan falls apart
All of it pointless
Nothing gained, all in vain
Going down
Under siege, sinking fast
Crumbling quickly
Fear and shame, endless pain
Floundering
Vile abominations all around us
Thriving, destroying every hope of justice
Still we pray, soon one day
Our faith will be revived
We’ll wake to see the light
And a miracle (Yeah, a miracle)
Is waiting there
I swear it showed up out of thin air
A miracle right in front of our eyes
