BRIGHTER THAN A THOUSAND SUNS LYRICS

1. Walls Made Of Glass


Let's get out of here
Money hungry hands await
Blood thirsty mouths just want more
There's no escape
It's not enough that our flesh
Feeds half their hunger

These shackles and chains
Keep changing their names
But we're still their slaves

If only these walls were made of glass
We'd have a second chance

We can't speak but we can scream
And when we're dead our cries are louder in your head

Without regret it's easy to forget
What we're living for
What are we dying for?

We are consumed by those we answer to
Bought and sold and swallowed whole

We're buried in your body
You're living in our skin
What are we living for?
Let's get out of here
Greedy hands await blood thirsty mouths
What are we dying for?

Just who do you think you are?
Just who do you think we are?
Get off your throne

You get away with murder


2. Sitting On A Time Bomb In Free Fall


We crown mankind with divine right
And draw these lines
So we choose sides
These creation crimes are costing lives

Open your eyes
Look from the outside
Don't buy these lies
Swallow your pride

In desperate times
The fight to stay alive
It's not the right to take a life
Will we trade all human kind
And our future for our pride

A blessing or a curse
This private universe
Where we come first
Has the telescope reversed

If this is wasted space
We should have more to show
For every choice we've made
Than just this fragile glow

This is all we have
This is all we know
Right now there is
Nowhere else to go
We are the only hope

Our past and our future collide
All humankind just a blink of an eye
Will we survive?

Think of what's at stake
For everyone's sake
Before we make
The ultimate mistake

This hatred inside us
Will tear us apart
We are on planet
What are we fighting for?


3. Warcry


Blind these heathen eyes
You can take our sight
But not our mind
You'll set this world ablaze
And we will burn
Till your tears put out the flames

This means war

Rivers of our blood
Will make the city flood
They know we will sink
Cause they tell us what to think

This is the war
We need to fight for
Our minds are worth more
Than what they sell them for

Our skin will break and peel
Our blood will spill
But our wounds will heal

We will reclaim what you took
We'll rebuild these city walls
And douse these burning books

How much can we take
As our freedom burns at the stake
This freewill is fake
Are we dying for their lies or their mistakes?

We will take back what you stole
A thousand years of learning
And our fragile orphan souls
And we will not be controlled


4. The Inheritance


Take this burning home
Our blood runs hot
But our hearts are cold

These blackened skies and poison seas
Stain our souls
Yet our hands are clean
Is this our legacy?

Money matters most
To buy us demons
To turn us into gods

But if money mattered most
Our bottom line
Should buy us hope

Instead we leave you alone
To take this burden
Off our fragile bones

We hand down this mess
To the heirs of our indifference
We pass this torch with shame
For you to put out the flames

So hold your breath and bite your tongues
Daughters and our sons
We leave our own flesh and blood
Work we left undone

Cast the flame
And lay to waste
The future for today

Mother nature raped
In mankind's wake
This is a disgrace
And makes our children slaves to our mistakes
But we turn the other way
For you to douse these flames

We take to the grave
A world that's up to you to save
