We Are Not Alone

Life

Arranged so perfectly

At times resigns to minor keys

Resolving to the 4th

Will find the root, of course

But now the key seems undefined

The strokes have fallen from the lines

And none who know the score

We can't hear it anymore

I... I've seen the Northern Lights

They're shining over paradise

Where owls command the air

And whales come up for air

But now the ****s have overgrown

The kingdom has been overthrown

The race of humankind

Has proved the most unkind

"We, the people," what's that mean? “

Have we forgotten everything

Of who we are

And where we all come from

We're selling out our hopes and dreams

And sacrificing everything

In disregard of those who tried to warn

And those who have yet to be born

Because we, we are not alone

This is not our home, alone

This is a home to all

The mighty and the smallest

Who will speak for them

Who will rise up to defend

Against the rising tide

Can you hear the voice inside you

Will you speak for them

How could we leave them all behind

How could we turn away

They wanted us to stay

And now we hear the cries

But still we fail to recognize

That as they fall behind

We are the next in line

Kill the creatures, kill them all

Line them up against the wall

Take a bow

And blow them all away

You call them the unfortunate Expendable, subordinate

Tell me now is this the price to pay

Isn't there some other way

Because we, we are not alone

This is not our home, alone

This is a home to all

The mighty and the smallest

Will you speak for them

Will you rise up to defend

Against the rising tide

Can you hear the voice inside you

Will you speak for them

We we are not alone

This is not our home, alone

This is a home to all

The mighty and the smallest

Will you speak for them

Will you rise up to defend

Against the rising tide

Can you hear the voice inside you

Will you speak for them

Will you speak for them
