lyrics

LYRICS:

all we have is temporary, sand in the glass
but like kingdoms once mighty, we too shall pass

if we're livin' on borrowed time, why suffer fools?
all it gets you is a cluttered mind and a heart that grows cruel
we don't need to save everyone, but to that end
if we never try with anyone, well, what happens then?

no one gets to have their cake and eat it, too
from this no one escapes, so which do you choose?
comfort and quiet are nice, but then there's the truth
and if for these things, truth is the price, then what's the use?

you say you'll never bend the knee
but everybody has a line
you say there's more than just money
but everybody has a price

you don't wanna be a loser, but you never do nothin'
you just make up an abuser, but everybody knows you're bluffin'
you just wanna run away and stay in your cave

our names written in a river bed, soon shall they fade
and like the water flows on ahead, so we decay

you say you'll never bend the knee
but everybody has a line
you say there's more than just money
but everybody has a price

everybody has a line
