Civil Isolation (Demo) Lyrics by While She Sleeps

You Are We (Special Edition)

2018

Said the skeptic
Born and bred negative
No peace for the calm collective
There’s a cold war coming in
Go!
Please let me know when it’s gone
It’s really not the best of times
And all we've got is guided by this light within
I’ll hold us both until the smoke clears
Until the smoke clears
Sick of our society
Sick of trying to fit inside a life I cannot lead
Sick of always following
Sick of trying to be another cog in their machines
Sick of running on empty, pushing the blame
Waiting for tomorrow to save us from today
There’s no profit in poverty
And I’m running on empty
I’m running on empty
Running myself into the ground
(Yeah!)
Said the skeptic
Born and bred negative
No peace for the calm collective
There’s a cold war coming in
Yeah!
It’s all gone right to my head
Wondering why we’re not all dead
It’s all gone right to my head
Wondering why we’re not all dead
Please let me know when it’s gone
It’s really not the best of times
And all we've got is guided by this light within
I’ll hold us both until the smoke clears
Until the smoke clears
Sick of our society
Sick of trying to fit inside a life I cannot lead
Sick of always following
Sick of trying to be another cog in their machines
Sick of running on empty, pushing the blame
Waiting for tomorrow to save us from today
There’s no profit in poverty
And I’m running on empty
I’m running on empty
Running myself into the ground
