[Verse 1: Dave Grunewald & Christoph Wieczorek]
We've ruined everything, a dream designed to fall
The world won't mourn us when we're dead and gone, dead and gone
Accepting our fate, our backs against the wall
The cycle of destruction goes on and on
Downtown is on fire
The final hour approaches you
Caught in the headlights, guilty of murder
Deep in your heart, you know the truth
[Pre-Chorus: Dave Grunewald]
So scream it loud, loud
Scream the truth
If they don't listen, scream it loud, loud
Scream the fucking truth
[Chorus: Dave Grunewald & Christoph Wieczorek]
If your eyes are open
If your heart's not frozen
Don't let it all disappear
'Cause all we have is here
If your eyes are open
If your heart's not frozen
Don't let it all disappear
'Cause all we have is here
[Verse 2: Dave Grunewald]
Who will shine the brightest of all?
What will it take to break down these prison walls?
We'll be the voice, alone in the crowd
If they're not listening
[Pre-Chorus: Dave Grunewald]
Scream it loud, loud
Scream the truth
If they don't listen, scream it loud, loud
Scream the fucking truth
[Chorus: Dave Grunewald & Christoph Wieczorek]
If your eyes are open
If your heart's not frozen
Don't let it all disappear
'Cause all we have is here
If your eyes are open
If your heart's not frozen
Don't let it all disappear
'Cause all we have is here
[Breakdown: Dave Grunewald]
Essential dedication to the pace of life
Open your eyes, how will we survive?
Survive
Deep in your heart, you know the truth
[Pre-Chorus: Dave Grunewald]
So scream it loud, loud
Scream the truth
If they don't listen, scream it loud, loud
Scream the fucking truth
[Chorus: Dave Grunewald & Christoph Wieczorek]
If your eyes are open
If your heart's not frozen
Don't let it all disappear
'Cause all we have is here
If your eyes are open
If your heart's not frozen
Don't let it all disappear
'Cause all we have is here
[Outro: Dave Grunewald]
Downtown is on fire
The final hour approaches you
Caught in the headlights, guilty of murder
Deep in your heart, you know the truth
