A pillar of society

Left behind in history

A strength unknown by those unafflicted

By war, disaster and disease

Break down the wall, some are meant to fall

Resist the call, to destroy them all

Sometimes we give in to our vices

For some it's through necessity

But those who've learned to stay corrupted

Can define immorality

Break down the wall, some are meant to fall

Resist the call, to destroy them all

Why are we so lucky and how long will it last?

The future's not determined by the course of the past

Some are traversing tragedy

A harsh eventuality

A sobering and coarse reminder of

The value of humility

Get up, get up, get up, break down the wall

Why are we so lucky and how long will it last?

The future's not determined by the course of the past

Revisionist agendas are a perpetuity

Made to pick a side without transparency

Distortions of truth and falsifiability

A shape-shifting scope of our sympathy

Who has earned your sympathy? Is it by proximity?

How will you apply it when so many suffer?

Why are we so lucky and how long will it last?

The future's not determined by the course of the past

Why are we so lucky and how long will it last?

The future's not determined by the course of the past
