The Li(f)e We Lead Lyrics

Confined, chained in a cavern since birth

Forced to watch

Only shadows flitting across the stone wall

Coming alive, burning on

Behind

Giving off a dying light

Darkness, isolation

The only path we ever saw

Our comfort zone

Living in our fake image of the world

We'll never know (never know) what lies beyond

Never doubt those that came along

Granted as the truth

In our fragile minds

Choose your illusion, the lie you're going to lead

The lie you're going to lead

And if one day you wake up - one day you will wake up

Being cast out from the cave - cast out from the cave

Eyes need time to adapt - eyes need time to adapt

To the truth that comes with the sun

By now you should know, our ignorant nature

Choose your illusion, the lie we lead

Confined, chained in a cavern since birth

Forced to exist, restrained where we are left to be

Where we are left to be

We are left to be

We are left to be

We are left to be

Numbing our way through this life, a habit we can't hide

Becoming harder each day to leave the past behind

And damned you'll be to make your way back to the depths of the cave

And nothing is what it seems when you go down the road

The sirens will call your name and leave you ripped and torn

Cause ignorant men hate it when someone points to the sun

Points to the sun

When someone points to the sun

The lie you're going to lead
