Hostage Situation - The Last Leg

Oh let us live
In the eye of the storm
Oblivious
But not free from harm

Oh let us live
In the eye of the storm
Oblivious
But not free from harm

I stood alone in the dust
Under an indifferent sun
Breathing the ash of purpose
The taste of rust on splintered tongue

Hell was in the silence
Hell was in the words unsaid
So sick, so sick of trying
Time forgives but only death forgets

And we thought we built our shelter
But our flesh could not uphold
The punishment of 8 billion voices
Afraid of the unknown
So tie down hope
Foundations made of bone
Yeah, tie down hope
Cause what you love
Ain’t what you own
We chose to live
When there was no future left

Hunger for distraction
Thirsting for the end

I’ll fight this hopelessness with a bottled revenge
‘Cause there’s no line between when passion stops and apathy begins
Inside my heart
Inside my mind
Inside my soul
I tried
Couldn’t find the forest for the trees
How could I have been so blind

Oh let us live
In the eye of the storm
Oblivious
But not free from harm

Oh let us live
In the eye of the storm
Oblivious
But not free from harm
