Thrice - Broken Lungs (The Alchemy Index, Vols. 3 & 4: Air & Earth) lyrics
[Thrice - Broken Lungs The Alchemy Index, Vols. 3 & 4: Air & Earth lyrics]
Woke up to a brand new skyline
We licked our wounds and mourn the dead
Swallowed the story hook and sinker
Is that what we meant when we
Said that we never would forget?
Are we fools and cowards all
To let them cover up their lies?
Cause we all watched the buildings fall
Watched the scales fall from our eyes
A fire burns beneath Manhattan
Still we breathe with broken lungs
We act like none of this matters
Is that what we meant when we said
That we'd sing what must be sung?
Are we fools and cowards all
To let them cover up their lies?
Cause we all watched the buildings fall
Watched the scales fall from our eyes
We want answers scream from the roofs
We want justice we want the truth
We licked our wounds and mourn the dead
Swallowed the story hook and sinker
Is that what we meant when we
Said that we never would forget?
Are we fools and cowards all
To let them cover up their lies?
Cause we all watched the buildings fall
Watched the scales fall from our eyes
A fire burns beneath Manhattan
Still we breathe with broken lungs
We act like none of this matters
Is that what we meant when we said
That we'd sing what must be sung?
Are we fools and cowards all
To let them cover up their lies?
Cause we all watched the buildings fall
Watched the scales fall from our eyes
We want answers scream from the roofs
We want justice we want the truth
