An idle mind is a powerful thing.
We act like we know what's above.
Pretending to show love.
(We know nothing).

We don't know what our actions will bring.
We like to think we try.
But we know that's a lie.
(We know nothing).

I don't act like I know the truth.
I'm just as blind as you.
In reality, I'm scared crow.
'Cause I don't know.

Another day means another life lost.
Where did he go?
Don't act like you know.
(We know nothing).

Compromise is a vacant wish now.
We can't stay for good.
Why is it that we should?
(When we know nothing).

I don't act like I know the truth.
I'm just as blind as you.
In reality, I'm scared crow.
'Cause I don't know.

Can you see our own stupidity?
Leave it be. Stay in reality.
It's been done. No longer with the One.
Madness runs. Burns brighter than the sun.

(You don't know what it takes to see light). To make me break.
(You don't know how it feels to live this life). So unreal.

(Symbol after symbol). Just another way to give up your life.
(We're all born to die). See you on the other side.
Then we'll see if it was just a lie.

So hard to find.
Wash away what's in my mind.
Bleeding 'till the day runs dry.
See you on the other side.

See you on the other side.
