Beneath the Smiles Lyrics by Twelve Foot Ninja

New Dawn [EP]

2008

The scars
Beneath their smiles
Run length to length
A million miles
The wisdom
Of a broken child
Who feels at home
Amidst the fire
Master knows
And he knows best
The universe
Within his chest
The ascendant rise
The cowards fall
Learn nothing
When you know it all
Are we men
Or are we mice?
For certain death
Awaits outside
We must beat
This system now
There's too many
To take them down
The only way
We'll make it out
Is to shed ourselves
Of shame and doubt
The only way
We'll make it out
Is if we make or break
Without a sound
Seize their prize
Storm the gates
For all we know
They sleep awake
They're marching
To the drums like sheep
Take a bow
And grit your teeth
The shrouded moon
It's a sign
We have to move now
It is time
Are we men
Or are we mice?
For certain death
Awaits outside
We must beat
This system now
There's too many
To take them down
The only way
We'll make it out
Is to shed ourselves
Of shame and doubt
The only way
We'll make it out
Is if we make or break
Without a sound
Seize their prize
Storm the gates
For all we know
They sleep awake
We will overcome
Atonement awaits
Unseen to the eyes
