What the hell, here's my flop song
Heal
Verse
We're rushing, we're screaming, we're crying, we're flustered
We're thirsty, we're starving, we're curious, we're clustered
We're sorry not sorry, we're free yet we're captured
We go off of instinct until something falters
We all lie and cheat, won't admit the deceit
We love and we care, we proclaim nothing's fair
We're left or we leave, can't have harmony
We struggle for peace, is there somebody out there?
Chorus
I used to be a boy who's ignorant heart was pure
But as I became a man I lost my innocence
In trying to carry all the guilt gathered from the world
I caved in and lost mind, couldn't cope with the hungry cries
I led myself in the dark, becoming cold in response
To the peril before my eyes as man crumbled into dust
I felt so heavy and I felt so helpless
I tried to escape this, but that would be useless
The world needs healing, and running won't save us
Verse
We're mixing, we're growing eclectic but phobic
We flourish on scandals, keep switching our motives
We see but we're blind, fighting for western culture
We stay passive until an issue affects us
We say God is the judge but throw stones at ourselves
We want to see change but we all stay the same
We don't trust in each other, we sell out to leaders
We're violent, we're insane, we're dying in vain
Chorus
I used to be a boy who's ignorant heart was pure
But as I became a man I lost my innocence
In trying to carry all the guilt gathered from the world
I caved in and lost mind, couldn't cope with the hungry cries
I led myself in the dark, becoming cold in response
To the peril before my eyes as man crumbled into dust
I felt so heavy and I felt so helpless
I tried to escape this, but that would be useless
The world needs healing, and running won't save us
Bridge
We're waiting, we're hopeless, we won't feed our homeless
We're slaves, we're consumers, seeking refuge in ignorance
Yet we are capable of so much more
Through all the mistakes, we have endured
And I feel so heavy and I feel so helpless
But we can't escape this, so we can't be useless
The world needs healing, and running won't save us
Chorus
I used to be a boy who's ignorant heart was lost
But as I became a man I began to understand
I can't try to carry all the guilt gathered from the world
This time I won't lose my mind, I must help the hungry cries
I emerged from the dark, becoming more aware of
The peril before my eyes, man can rise from the dust
And while my heart is heavy, my mind is ready
I won't escape this, I won't be useless
The world needs healing, and running won't save us
