Letra de The People Under The Stairs
There was a time it seemed so long ago The world was painted gold Before the hope began to corrode And all the people awoke to the cold That they had let the evil growAnd then came the masses Who questioned the presence of God Can anyone hear us? These cries - these screams - will these footsteps be our last?So they let us die the hate behind the smiles- it took them by surprise (took them by surprise) And the silence left us hanging while we lit up like the 4th of July If ignorance is peace pretend we didn't say "never again"(never again) And let forever belong to the deadThe time is now This chance could be your soul redemption Or these tombs will bear your denial, deception, and tragedy One that you'll help build when you let us burn Biting off your nails won't heal the scratches on your eyesSo they let us die the hate behind the smiles- it took them by surprise (took them by surprise) And the silence left us hanging while we lit up like the 4th of July If ignorance is peace pretend we didn't say "never again" (never again) And let forever belong to the deadAnd there is no excuse There is no lie big enough to hide behind (our time is now) The blinding lights struck the people divided What were they waiting for (our time is now) So they let us die the hate behind the smiles- it took them by surprise (took them by surprise) And the silence left us hanging while we lit up like the 4th of July If ignorance is peace pretend we didn't say "never again" (never again) And let forever belong to the dead Our time is now
