"All These Lives" lyrics
Doesn't come down when she calls
"It's time for breakfast"
Momma can't get down those halls
Fast enough to see
Glass is sprayed across the floor
From the broken window
She can't breathe anymore
Can't deny what we know
(They're gonna find you, just believe)
They're gonna find you, just believe
(You're not a person)
You're not a person; you're a disease
All these lives that you've been taking
Deep inside, my heart is breaking
Broken homes from separation
Don't you know it's violation?
It's so wrong, but you'll see
Never gonna let you take my world from me
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing
But you ain't coming in
(But you ain't coming in)
Posters hung on building walls
Of missing faces
Months go by without the calls
No clues or traces
(They're gonna find you, just believe)
They're gonna find you, just believe
(You're not a person)
You're not a person; you're a disease
All these lives that you've been taking
Deep inside, my heart is breaking
Broken homes from separation
Don't you know it's violation?
It's so wrong, but you'll see
Never gonna let you take my world from me
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing
But you ain't coming in
(But you ain't coming in)
Shed the light on all the ones who never thought they would become
A father, mother asking why this world can be so cold
Doesn't come down when she calls
"It's time for breakfast"
The memories begin to fall
She asks, "When will I be free?"
All these lives that you've been taking
Deep inside, my heart is breaking
Broken homes from separation
Don't you know it's violation?
It's so wrong, but you'll see
Never gonna let you take my world from me
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing
But you ain't coming in
All these lives that you've been taking, deep inside, my heart is breaking
All these lives that you've been taking, deep inside, my heart is breaking
All these lives that you've been taking, deep inside, my heart is breaking
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing
But you ain't coming in
"It's time for breakfast"
Momma can't get down those halls
Fast enough to see
Glass is sprayed across the floor
From the broken window
She can't breathe anymore
Can't deny what we know
(They're gonna find you, just believe)
They're gonna find you, just believe
(You're not a person)
You're not a person; you're a disease
All these lives that you've been taking
Deep inside, my heart is breaking
Broken homes from separation
Don't you know it's violation?
It's so wrong, but you'll see
Never gonna let you take my world from me
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing
But you ain't coming in
(But you ain't coming in)
Posters hung on building walls
Of missing faces
Months go by without the calls
No clues or traces
(They're gonna find you, just believe)
They're gonna find you, just believe
(You're not a person)
You're not a person; you're a disease
All these lives that you've been taking
Deep inside, my heart is breaking
Broken homes from separation
Don't you know it's violation?
It's so wrong, but you'll see
Never gonna let you take my world from me
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing
But you ain't coming in
(But you ain't coming in)
Shed the light on all the ones who never thought they would become
A father, mother asking why this world can be so cold
Doesn't come down when she calls
"It's time for breakfast"
The memories begin to fall
She asks, "When will I be free?"
All these lives that you've been taking
Deep inside, my heart is breaking
Broken homes from separation
Don't you know it's violation?
It's so wrong, but you'll see
Never gonna let you take my world from me
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing
But you ain't coming in
All these lives that you've been taking, deep inside, my heart is breaking
All these lives that you've been taking, deep inside, my heart is breaking
All these lives that you've been taking, deep inside, my heart is breaking
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing
But you ain't coming in
