The Bystander's Song Lyrics

A great disaster yet everyone sleeps

Lost in comfort ignoring the deep

Warnings echo but you shut your eyes

Blocking the truth living in lies

Pessimists you say what you will

Just fear talking my life's standing still!

But the truth is sinking deeper each day

This reality is here can't turn away

Voices of caution brushed aside

In your complacency you can't see the tide

I won't stay silent can't ignore the signs

If our future's fading we'll draw the lines

Pessimists you say what you will

Just fear talking my life's standing still!

But the truth is sinking deeper each day

This reality is here can't turn away

Trapped in the silence you choose to ignore

That passive attitude opens the door

True courage is facing the fears we find

Embracing the danger leaving denial behind

(Pessimists you say what you will

Just fear talking my life's standing still!

But the truth is sinking deeper each day

This reality is here can't turn away)

So rise up now no more standing by

We need to change this world reach for the sky

Call us pessimists it's fine we'll yell

Screaming the truth together we'll swell!
