lyrics

a sunny day it seems to wait for everyone
but it some days, our luck is made if its to come
for when its done and life's become a dying flame
we sons and daughters look to fathers of today
for answers...

you promised gold, trips to the coast and level heads
I've always felt these to be promises unkept
but you led blindly into darkness nonetheless
and very well may have gone and left us all for dead

oh, if we ever look back
we will succumb to attack

rife with distraction and bliss
where is the error in this?

what is this? and why do I care?
all I feeling blowing is hot air
a phantom host? apparition? ghost?
are we chasing shadows up the stairs?
its so hard to look so far into the future, the unknown
so I say oh oh oh oh....

is this the way of the earth?
scared of the strength to endure?

The music is the collision of all these elements with fate. ... more
