The Day No One Needed To Know

The Day No One Needed To Know

Moneen
(album: The Red Tree)

all this time
we wait on this shallow line
for a martyr to save our lives when you can´t.
a warning sign
a lack in reaction time
mixed with a war to fight keeps us here.
the tide is in
it´s time we all learn to swim
these rooftops won´t save our lives and nor did you.
everything´s all right.

nothing´s ok. we´ve been lied to. we´re so frail
you can pray, scream out his name
while they all keep sinking away.

a hope a cure
reminds me this seems absurd to stay
and find who you swore to save, well you can´t
let us in, let us in we can´t find shelter in time.
life is all we have.
cause everything´s alright. just keep on saying...

nothing´s ok. we´ve been lied to. we´re so frail
you can pray, scream out his name
while they all keep sinking.

all this time´s gone by, the taste of revenge.
a blood thirsty grin, it´s all ok.
nothing´s ok.

sing loud - sing louder - sing to feel - sing for everyone
please sing loud - sing louder - sing to heal - sing for everyone

sing for life sing for choices
sing for everyone without voices

sing for...
love - laughter - everyone here and after.
fear - hatred - everyone less than sacred.
life - choices - everyone without voices.
you can pray while they all keep sinking away.

a hero won´t come in time. a martyr won´t save our lives.
he can´t.
