lyrics

We're alone, we're alone
A bloodline bred for enslavement
Turn to stone, turn to stone
We're ground down and turned into pavement

I can feel the branches cracking under my feet
I don't know why I'm running but I'm sure it's a dream
I got close to the water and I looked inside
Saw the image of our Father and His lack of pride
I struck at my reflection and awoke in a sweat
Pulled the sheets off of my body and then over my head
Jason turned to Michael and they kept outside
Said "Maybe it is better to keep the demons outside"
Oh my God.

We're alone, we're alone
A bloodline bred for enslavement
Turn to stone, turn to stone
We're ground down and turned into pavement

I can feel the branches cracking under my feet
I don't know why I'm running but I'm sure it's a dream
I got close to the water and I looked inside
Saw the image of our Father and His lack of pride
I struck at my reflection and awoke in a sweat
Pulled the sheets off of my body and then over my head
Jason turned to Michael and they looked inside
Saw the image of our Father and His lack of pride
Oh my God.

He took the long way up the stairs
Down the hallway, his parents bedroom
A gun in hand, his gun in hand.

He took the long (took the long way) way up the stairs
Down the hallway (took the long way) his parents bedroom
His gun in hand, his gun in hand.
