We make a living by what we make, but we make a life by what we give


We are the devils pets
We are your living life set
We are the ground you bury
We cause your life so scary
We are the beautiful main of remorse
We are the hate filled world of force
We are the severed souls you sell
We are the heavenly dogs from hell
We are the last written conscience
We are the shame filled gauntlet
We are the betrayed betrayers
We are the say no sayers
We are the lies you await
We are the reminiscent that you hate
We are the codes you don't know
We are the folds you can't unfold
We are the sacred law of peace
We are the tainted stew you eat
We are the needle that you use
We are the high you can't defuse
We are the outside in which you sleep
We are the water you're in so deep
We are the buildings in the sky
We are the sore set meant to die
We are the bodies on the ground
We are the sounding sirens song
We are the ones casting the fire
We are the ones that give them the power
We are the shy disfigured gun
We are the beautiful sound of them run
We are the hideous creature's cave
We are the making mat of what goes away
We are the confused civilian
We are the amused pavilion
We are the trees up so high
We are the leaves that whither and die
We are the cars that will not start
We are everyone's missing part
We are the carried basket of goods
we are the silent person dressed in hood
We are the liquor that poisons your body
We are the time of when you were sorry
We are the plants you grow
We are the delicate snow
We are the hungry dog's growl
We are the food that makes them all howl
We are simple to see
Silents is key.
