Call & Response - Acoustic Lyrics by We Were Giants

Reimagined EP

2023

[Verse 1]
Take a look at the faces
Their words keep whispering for help
Are you even listening?
Try to tell me this isn't Hell
Hanging on all bare lines that kept our hands tied
We need to break the spell
We need to spread the light
[Verse 2]
Find a way from the past
I'm sick of living like I never had a chance
How can we go on like this?
Condemning hope without elation
Burning dreams with nothing to show for it
How can you know who I am when you are living for the end?
[Chorus]
I've cursed this frail world
I've let go of the light
I've been here for too long
What will it take to feel alive?
I've pushed it all away
I've forgotten what's right
Give me the strength to learn
What will it take to feel alive?
There's no stopping a man with passion
A man using his heart as a weapon
A mind as his ammunition
Sacrificing himself to heal the wounded
[Verse 3]
The crutch I've known is beginning to fail me
I'm slowly turning into the person I was meant to be
Coming from a line of consistency
Tearing down the walls of history
As saddening as life can be
I need to remember that the light was buried deep within me
As these years have gone by I am starting to see
That I am me and that is all I need to be
And it's time to face me
[Chorus]
There's no stopping a man with passion
A man using his heart as a weapon
A mind as his ammunition
Sacrificing himself to heal the wounded
I've cursed this frail world
I've let go of the light
I've been here for too long
What will it take to feel alive?
I've pushed it all away
I've forgotten what's right
Give me the strength to learn
What will it take to feel alive?
