My son you're old now
You've left your mark upon this land
You've pushed it hard
Because you can look to your children
You've said four words that we won't speak
For they don't share in our diseaseWe've made our vows
We've played you wrong
Is there a sound that it makes
'Cause I couldn't hear how hearts break
We trusted few
And watched them fall
We closed our eyes
And we fly into the wide open arms of the light
For some it's so clear
They know the people at their feet
We'll trust the mouse that talks so sweetly in all of Iceland
To see the blood upon our hands
We couldn't help but understandWe've made our vows
We've played you wrong
Is there a sound that it makes
'Cause I couldn't hear how hearts break
We trusted few
And watched them fall
We closed our eyes
And we fly into the wide open arms of the lightThey never told us why
There's people still missing in our minds
There's people still missing in our minds
There's people still missing in our minds
Our lives are fading things
Hey brother, are you out there?
My hope's alive within
Hey brother, are you out there?Our lives are fading things
Hey brother, are you out there?
My hope's alive within
Hey brother, are you out there?Our lives are fading things
Hey brother, are you out there?
My hope's alive within
Hey brother, are you out there?Our lives are fading things
