August Burns Red - Deadbolt lyrics

You watched your aspirations
Laid to waste, ground up, and evaporated
Destined to be trampled and ignored
The air in the room has made
Them sink to the floor

Everyone is shouting for more
More shock and disbelief glued to the screen
Instead of finding solutions
There’s one in front of us
We’re used to devastation
A new standard of complete isolation

We are lost in our own homes
We start wandering sometimes
We are hiding from all hope
When we’re missing in our own minds

How much longer will it take to
Find the answers to your mistake?
We are all paying the price for them
Every second of every single day

The clock is counting down
Now we’ve learned you’re the time bomb
Our patience has run out

Pacing so much we are burning
Holes in the planks
The flames flicker right before us
Stuck in a trance we
Don’t notice them advance
They overtake the silence

We are lost in our own homes
We start wandering sometimes
We are hiding from all hope
When we’re missing in our own minds

Did the stars fail to guide your way
Circling you in infinity
Even if you follow the sun you can go astray
It’s so hard to believe it’s happening

The warnings fell on deaf ears
But they crushed us into
Cowards filled with fear

Sound the alarm we’ll sit here in silence
We aren’t safe in our own minds
Like being trapped in a living landmine
