Thousands of years have just passed us by
Ignoring the sins of the ones from before
The precursor of anguish
Those who laid the foundation to our agony

Their descendants torment us still
Staking claim while we're losing the game
Giving false hope for what we have left
We must decide to reject all this pain

Denounce the grief
Defy restraint
And reach for the light at the end
There is hope in this world we just need to believe that we're meant to be whole
Turn our face to the rain
Our persistence will denounce the lament

We will never know what is on the other side of death
Not until the time comes and our lungs expel the final breath
So take back what's yours, for it's all we get

One chance to fulfil ourselves
Take in the world with our own set of eyes
Discarding the guidance we long to reject

Denounce the grief
Defy restraint
And reach for the light at the end
There is hope in this world we just need to believe that we're meant to be whole
Turn our face to the rain
Our persistence will denounce the lament

The masses, they gather, united in hate
The hierarchy grins and unleashes the pain

Unleash your pain
Denounce the grief
Unleash your pain
Defy restraint
And reach for the light at the end

Turn our face to the rain
Our persistence will denounce the lament
