We're here at the finale
Where everyone's pretending
A lie has not been told
Oh, we wanted so much to believe
But we're holding on to something
That never was in stone

We're wasting all our lives away
Bending knees to those who don't know our name

We're running on empty, we're fighting for nothing
Falling apart while we're chasing the sky
Don't tell me we're living, we're simply existing
Feeding the fire that consumes us alive
We're chasing the sky

Been waiting on the world to change
But our future has been displaced
Our dreams have all been sold

We're wasting all our lives away
Bending knees to those who erased our names

We're running on empty, we're fighting for nothing
Falling apart while we're chasing the sky
Don't tell me we're living, we're simply existing
Feeding the fire that consumes us alive

In a state of decay, we're all so diseased
Victims of delusion
Tear the veil away to see all the chains
Shatter the illusion

We try to see the meaning, reality's deceiving
The wolves are at the gates while we just sit here contemplating
We suffocate, suffocate
On smoke from the fire that we created

We're running on empty, we're fighting for nothing
Falling apart while we're chasing the sky
Don't tell me we're living, we're simply existing
Feeding the fire that consumes us alive
We're chasing the sky
We're chasing the sky
