It's a shame we never learn
we all consume more than we earn
but we are forgiven
because we are the chosen

going in circles like we're hungry for blood
why don't we see the tears fall until they flood
we'll drown in the love for ourselves
and nothing will save us

I thought we had this figured out by now
but somehow in pieces we fall apart
I thought we learned our lesson but somehow
we're back here all broken without a heart
lost in faith we're falling down

when there's nothing left to take
there's always something else to prey
but we are forgiven
because we are the chosen

going in circles like we're hungry for blood
why can't we see the tears fall until they flood
we'll drown in the love for ourselves
and nothing will save us
because there's no book or a god to end what we started

I thought we had this figured out by now
but somehow in pieces we fall apart
I thought we learned our lesson but somehow
we're back here all broken without a heart
lost in faith we're falling down

in the love for ourselves nothing will save us
because there's no book or a god to end what we started
but we are forgiven and nothing will save us

I thought we had this figured out by now
but somehow in pieces we fall apart
thought we learned our lesson but somehow
we're back here all broken without a heart
lost in faith we're falling down
