"Us Against The World" lyrics

"Us Against The World"

I'm paralyzed
And comatose
We're killing time
And seeing ghosts
We're gasoline
On a kitchen fire
Oh, it's a bad scene
But it's a good lie

Like future heirs, we stand in line
But only one queen can wear the crown
We navigate with open eyes
But using a map turned upside down

You stopped in your tracks because this isn't the way
You tried to convince them, you were blue in the face
Because you're outnumbered doesn't mean that you're wrong
So alone, but not the only one

Look around, it's always been us against the world
Fighting through the symptoms and searching for a cure
Like a lighthouse with nothing left to burn

Are you losing faith?
Are you paranoid?
Do you fall asleep
To the white noise?

Did you read the fine print before you signed on?
The things that we fight for aren't easily won
Don't be surprised here if nobody shows
I know you're scared, but you're not alone

Can't you see it's always been us against the world?
Fighting through the symptoms and searching for a cure
Like a lighthouse in the storm, but with nothing left to burn, oh
Look around, it's always been us against the world
Yeah, it's us against the world

Paralyzed
And comatose
We're killing time
And seeing ghosts
We're gasoline
On a kitchen fire
It's a bad scene
But it's a good lie

It's us against the world
It's us against the world
It's us against the world
Oh, it's us against the world

Just look around
It's us against the world
Well, look around
It's us against the world
Just look around
It's us against the world
Just look around
It's us against the world
