In Hearts Wake - Breakaway lyrics

Can you see what you've become
Hiding yourself behind a loaded gun?
You will never feel true love
Living in the shadow of the sun
The hopeless now lie crawling on their knees
And who will lead with compassion in their hands?

Break, break away
Break from the past
Break from everything you know
Take, take away
Take from the dead
They are living proof

Try to breathe the smoke-filled air
Haunted by the voices of the dead
You will never win the war
Or wash away the blood that has been shed
The hopeless now lie crawling on their knees
And who will lead with compassion in their hands?

Break, break away
Break from the past
Break from everything you know
Take, take away
Take from the dead
They are living proof
Break, break away
Break from the past
Break from everything you know
Take, take away
Take from this life
It's the only fucking truth

To the cowards who sit back and watch
Fathers become a casualty notch
Where are they now?
The truth is out
To the Mothers who grieve and cry
While their children fight back and die
Where are they now?
The truth is out

Break, break away
Break from the past
Break from everything you know
Take, take away
Take from the dead
They are living proof
Break, break away
Break from the past
Break from everything you know
Take, take away
Take from this life
It's the only fucking truth

This is the only fucking truth
