Without balance, there can't be peace
but still we run to what we believe
They say our anger's a disease
but our hearts won't be deceived

Don't close your eyes my friend
You may never see the light again
The things that make us human
are the flaws we try to hide
But think of all the things we've ruined
running from our dark side

All we ever did was wish
No one ever meant for this
We were too blind
Too eager to fall in line

It's too goddamn dark to smile now
Right when we rise our heads are bowed
To mourn what we couldn't even see
Too busy fighting the wrong disease

Hate isn't ignorance
It's not a thought to be passed around
Our hate, it pushes us
to break these chains by which we're bound

It's too goddamn dark to smile now
Right when we rise our heads are bowed
To mourn what we couldn't even see
Too busy fighting the wrong disease

All we ever did was wish
No one ever meant for this
We were too blind
Too eager to fall in line

It's much too dark to even see
The very things we denounce are what we feed
What makes us human is our fate
We only love because we hate

All we ever did was wish
