Underoath - Who Will Guard The Guardians? Lyrics

We are nothing
They own our lives
Just a statue
Of a stain in time
We are nothing
They own our lives
Spinning in circles
Got left behind

We were all warned this would happen
But the words just rang in our ears
Machines built by machines
Built by machines
Built by machines
Built by machines

We can only hide for so long, so long
Before they harvest us
For the souls that we have left
We can only hide for so long, so long
Before they harvest us
For the souls that we have left

I swear we cannot make up
from this hell that we live in
But when the sun finally hits our face

We see that we are merely
Reflections of reflections
Left by our predecessors
Dragged through the mud
Chained by the ankle

There is no more running
There is no more escaping
If only God could lay his hands down
On this barren land and wake us up

Because we are the lost
We are the helpless
We are the forgotten
We are the lost
And we are the abandoned

I swear it's worth saving us
We pray for the sun to dry us up
I need a clearer head
To see what we're worth
There's still life left
Down here to revolt

Oh, I know what it looks like from there
A loss of control to this place
And we're set to extinct

I swear, I swear it's worth saving us
Oh, I swear, I swear it's worth saving us
Oh, I swear, I swear it's worth saving us
I swear, I swear

Revolt, revolt
We stood by defeat for so long
For so long
Revolt, revolt
We stood by defeat for so long
For so long

We've been under your control
We've been under your control
We will not be a part of your disease
