Lay down your injured arms Cos we've come so far as one Dig me out of here so on my back I feel some sun Flee the darkness of this hour Leave the modern world behind My life's a burning tower The walls are the hills we climb How do I fight these inconceivable odds From bringing me down? The drive for explanation grips us all And pins us to the ground If I ever leave your side unattended Exposed to the fall If I ever leave your heart undefended Your back to the wall Everyone must exist alone We all run races with no ending My thoughts are synchronised To a clock with no time The hearts of men will be corrupted Abandoned by themselves Life makes their minds destructive Frightened by the trigger inside How do I fight these inconceivable odds From bringing me down? The drive for explanation grips us all And pins us to the ground If I ever leave your side unattended Exposed to the fall If I ever leave your heart undefended Your back to the wall
